# vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress - Query an opaque capture address of a memory object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To query a 64-bit opaque capture address value from a memory object, call:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_2
    uint64_t vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        const VkDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressInfo* pInfo);

or the equivalent command

    // Provided by VK_KHR_buffer_device_address
    uint64_t vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressKHR(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        const VkDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressInfo* pInfo);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device that the memory object was allocated on.

- `pInfo` is a pointer to a VkDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressInfo structure specifying the memory object to retrieve an address for.

## Description

The 64-bit return value is an opaque address representing the start of `pInfo->memory`.

If the memory object was allocated with a non-zero value of VkMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressAllocateInfo::`opaqueCaptureAddress`, the return value must be the same address.

| Note The expected usage for these opaque addresses is only for trace capture/replay tools to store these addresses in a trace and subsequently specify them during replay.

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress-None-03334
  The bufferDeviceAddress feature must be enabled

- VUID-vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress-device-03335
  If `device` was created with multiple physical devices, then the bufferDeviceAddressMultiDevice feature must be enabled

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkGetDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddress-pInfo-parameter
  `pInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkDeviceMemoryOpaqueCaptureAddressInfo structure
