C Specification

A device address range indicates a sized range of device memory.

// Provided by VK_KHR_device_address_commands
typedef struct VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR {
    VkDeviceAddress    address;
    VkDeviceSize       size;
} VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR;
// Provided by VK_EXT_descriptor_heap
// Equivalent to VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR
typedef VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR VkDeviceAddressRangeEXT;

Description

Valid Usage

  • VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-size-11411
    If size is not 0, address must not be 0

  • VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-address-11365
    The sum of address and size must be less than or equal to the sum of an address retrieved from a VkBuffer and the value of VkBufferCreateInfo::size used to create that VkBuffer

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-address-parameter
    If address is not 0, address must be a valid VkDeviceAddress value
