C Specification
Bits which can be set in VkCommandPoolCreateInfo::flags,
specifying usage behavior for a command pool, are:
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
typedef enum VkCommandPoolCreateFlagBits {
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_TRANSIENT_BIT = 0x00000001,
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_RESET_COMMAND_BUFFER_BIT = 0x00000002,
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_PROTECTED_BIT = 0x00000004,
} VkCommandPoolCreateFlagBits;Description
-
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_TRANSIENT_BIT specifies that command buffers allocated from the pool will be short-lived, meaning that they will be reset or freed in a relatively short timeframe. This flag may be used by the implementation to control memory allocation behavior within the pool.
-
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_RESET_COMMAND_BUFFER_BIT allows any command buffer allocated from a pool to be individually reset to the initial state; either by calling vkResetCommandBuffer, or via the implicit reset when calling vkBeginCommandBuffer. If this flag is not set on a pool, then
vkResetCommandBuffermust not be called for any command buffer allocated from that pool. -
VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_PROTECTED_BIT specifies that command buffers allocated from the pool are protected command buffers.
