} VkShaderCreateFlagBitsEXT;Description
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_LINK_STAGE_BIT_EXT specifies that a shader is linked to all other shaders created in the same vkCreateShadersEXT call whose VkShaderCreateInfoEXT structures'
flagsinclude VK_SHADER_CREATE_LINK_STAGE_BIT_EXT. -
VK_SHADER_CREATE_ALLOW_VARYING_SUBGROUP_SIZE_BIT_EXT specifies that the
SubgroupSizemay vary in a task, mesh, or compute shader. -
VK_SHADER_CREATE_REQUIRE_FULL_SUBGROUPS_BIT_EXT specifies that the subgroup sizes must be launched with all invocations active in a task, mesh, or compute shader.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_NO_TASK_SHADER_BIT_EXT specifies that a mesh shader must only be used without a task shader. Otherwise, the mesh shader must only be used with a task shader.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_DISPATCH_BASE_BIT_EXT specifies that a compute shader can be used with vkCmdDispatchBase with a non-zero base workgroup.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_ATTACHMENT_BIT_EXT specifies that a fragment shader can be used with a fragment shading rate attachment.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_FRAGMENT_DENSITY_MAP_ATTACHMENT_BIT_EXT specifies that a fragment shader can be used with a fragment density map attachment.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_INDIRECT_BINDABLE_BIT_EXT specifies that the shader can be used in combination with Device-Generated Commands.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_64_BIT_INDEXING_BIT_EXT specifies that the shader enables 64-bit indexing.
-
VK_SHADER_CREATE_DESCRIPTOR_HEAP_BIT_EXT specifies that the shader will use descriptor heap mappings instead of descriptor set layouts.
