# VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT - Structure describing whether querying and providing an identifier of a shader module is supported by the implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_shader_module_identifier
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           shaderModuleIdentifier;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT;

## 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.

- `shaderModuleIdentifier` indicates whether the implementation supports querying an identifier of a VkShaderModule or VkShaderModuleCreateInfo structure, and creating pipelines from identifiers only.

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

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceShaderModuleIdentifierFeaturesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_SHADER_MODULE_IDENTIFIER_FEATURES_EXT`
