# VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV - Structure specifying the pipeline to query an address for

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_device_generated_commands_compute
    typedef struct VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV {
        VkStructureType        sType;
        const void*            pNext;
        VkPipelineBindPoint    pipelineBindPoint;
        VkPipeline             pipeline;
    } VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

- `pipelineBindPoint` is a VkPipelineBindPoint value specifying the type of pipeline whose device address is being queried.

- `pipeline` specifies the pipeline whose device address is being queried.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pipelineBindPoint-09079
  The provided `pipelineBindPoint` must be of type VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_COMPUTE

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pipeline-09080
  `pipeline` must have been created with flag VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_INDIRECT_BINDABLE_BIT_NV set

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pipeline-09081
  `pipeline` must have been created with a VkComputePipelineIndirectBufferInfoNV structure specifying a valid address where its metadata will be saved

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PIPELINE_INDIRECT_DEVICE_ADDRESS_INFO_NV

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pipelineBindPoint-parameter
  `pipelineBindPoint` must be a valid VkPipelineBindPoint value

- VUID-VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV-pipeline-parameter
  `pipeline` must be a valid VkPipeline handle
