## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_portability_subset
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           constantAlphaColorBlendFactors;
        VkBool32           events;
        VkBool32           imageViewFormatReinterpretation;
        VkBool32           imageViewFormatSwizzle;
        VkBool32           imageView2DOn3DImage;
        VkBool32           multisampleArrayImage;
        VkBool32           mutableComparisonSamplers;
        VkBool32           pointPolygons;
        VkBool32           samplerMipLodBias;
        VkBool32           separateStencilMaskRef;
        VkBool32           shaderSampleRateInterpolationFunctions;
        VkBool32           tessellationIsolines;
        VkBool32           tessellationPointMode;
        VkBool32           triangleFans;
        VkBool32           vertexAttributeAccessBeyondStride;
    } VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR;

## Members

This structure describes the following features:

## Description

- `sType` is the type of this structure.

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

- `constantAlphaColorBlendFactors` indicates whether this implementation supports constant alpha https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#framebuffer-blendfactors used as source or destination color https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#framebuffer-blending.

- `events` indicates whether this implementation supports synchronization using https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#synchronization-events.

- `imageViewFormatReinterpretation` indicates whether this implementation supports a `VkImageView` being created with a texel format containing a different number of components, or a different number of bits in each component, than the texel format of the underlying `VkImage`.

- `imageViewFormatSwizzle` indicates whether this implementation supports remapping format components using VkImageViewCreateInfo::`components`.

- `imageView2DOn3DImage` indicates whether this implementation supports a `VkImage` being created with the `VK_IMAGE_CREATE_2D_ARRAY_COMPATIBLE_BIT` flag set, permitting a 2D or 2D array image view to be created on a 3D `VkImage`.

- `multisampleArrayImage` indicates whether this implementation supports a `VkImage` being created as a 2D array with multiple samples per texel.

- `mutableComparisonSamplers` indicates whether this implementation allows descriptors with comparison samplers to be updated.

- `pointPolygons` indicates whether this implementation supports https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#primsrast using a point https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#primsrast-polygonmode.

- `samplerMipLodBias` indicates whether this implementation supports setting a mipmap LOD bias value when creating a sampler.

- `separateStencilMaskRef` indicates whether this implementation supports separate front and back https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#fragops-stencil reference values.

- `shaderSampleRateInterpolationFunctions` indicates whether this implementation supports fragment shaders which use the `InterpolationFunction` capability and the extended instructions `InterpolateAtCentroid`, `InterpolateAtOffset`, and `InterpolateAtSample` from the `GLSL.std.450` extended instruction set. This member is only meaningful if the `sampleRateShading` feature is supported.

- `tessellationIsolines` indicates whether this implementation supports isoline output from the https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#tessellation stage of a graphics pipeline. This member is only meaningful if `tessellationShader` are supported.

- `tessellationPointMode` indicates whether this implementation supports point output from the https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#tessellation stage of a graphics pipeline. This member is only meaningful if `tessellationShader` are supported.

- `triangleFans` indicates whether this implementation supports https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#drawing-triangle-fans primitive topology.

- `vertexAttributeAccessBeyondStride` indicates whether this implementation supports accessing a vertex input attribute beyond the stride of the corresponding vertex input binding.

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

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PORTABILITY_SUBSET_FEATURES_KHR`
