# VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT - Structure describing whether an implementation supports robustness requests on a per-pipeline stage granularity

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_pipeline_robustness
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           pipelineRobustness;
    } VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT;

## Members

This structure describes the following feature:

## Description

- `sType` is the type of this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `pipelineRobustness` indicates that robustness can be requested on a per-pipeline-stage granularity.

| Note Enabling `pipelineRobustness` may, on some platforms, incur a minor performance cost when `robustBufferAccess` is disabled, even for pipelines which do not make use of any robustness features. If robustness is not needed, `pipelineRobustness` should not be enabled by an application.

If the `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT` 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. `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT` can also be used in the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo to selectively enable these features.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePipelineRobustnessFeaturesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PIPELINE_ROBUSTNESS_FEATURES_EXT`
