# VkMemoryOverallocationBehaviorAMD(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkMemoryOverallocationBehaviorAMD - Specify memory overallocation behavior

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

Possible values for VkDeviceMemoryOverallocationCreateInfoAMD::`overallocationBehavior` include:

    // Provided by VK_AMD_memory_overallocation_behavior
    typedef enum VkMemoryOverallocationBehaviorAMD {
        VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT_AMD = 0,
        VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_ALLOWED_AMD = 1,
        VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_DISALLOWED_AMD = 2,
    } VkMemoryOverallocationBehaviorAMD;

## Description

- `VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT_AMD` lets the implementation decide if overallocation is allowed.

- `VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_ALLOWED_AMD` specifies overallocation is allowed if platform permits.

- `VK_MEMORY_OVERALLOCATION_BEHAVIOR_DISALLOWED_AMD` specifies the application is not allowed to allocate device memory beyond the heap sizes reported by VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties. Allocations that are not explicitly made by the application within the scope of the Vulkan instance are not accounted for.
