        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        const VkDebugUtilsLabelEXT*                 pLabelInfo);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer into which the command is recorded.

- `pInfo` is a pointer to a VkDebugUtilsLabelEXT structure specifying parameters of the label to insert.
