## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures - Structure describing protected memory features that can be supported by an implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           protectedMemory;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures;

## Members

This structure describes the following feature:

## Description

- `protectedMemory` specifies whether protected memory is supported.

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. `VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures` can also be used in the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo to selectively enable these features.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryFeatures-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PROTECTED_MEMORY_FEATURES`

## See Also

`VkBool32`, VkStructureType
