Package org.lwjgl.vulkan

Class KHRVulkanMemoryModel

java.lang.Object

org.lwjgl.vulkan.KHRVulkanMemoryModel

public final class KHRVulkanMemoryModel
extends java.lang.Object

The VK_KHR_vulkan_memory_model extension allows use of the Vulkan Memory Model, which formally defines how to synchronize memory accesses to the same memory locations performed by multiple shader invocations.

Note

Version 3 of the spec added a member (vulkanMemoryModelAvailabilityVisibilityChains) to VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR, which is an incompatible change from version 2.

Promotion to Vulkan 1.2

All functionality in this extension is included in core Vulkan 1.2, with the KHR suffix omitted. However, if Vulkan 1.2 is supported and this extension is not, the vulkanMemoryModel capability is optional. The original type, enum and command names are still available as aliases of the core functionality.
