Description

This extension enables an application to import QNX Screen Screen_buffer objects created outside of the Vulkan device into Vulkan memory objects, where they can be bound to images and buffers.

Some Screen_buffer images have implementation-defined /external formats that may/ not correspond to Vulkan formats. Sampler Y′CBCR conversion can be used to sample from these images and convert them to a known color space.

Screen_buffer is strongly typed, so naming the handle type is redundant. The internal layout and therefore size of a Screen_buffer image may depend on native usage flags that do not have corresponding Vulkan counterparts.

VkImportScreenBufferInfoQNX - Import memory from a QNX Screen buffer

Description

The implementation may not acquire a reference to the imported Screen buffer. Therefore, the application must ensure that the object referred to by buffer stays valid as long as the device memory to which it is imported is being used.

VkScreenBufferFormatPropertiesQNX - Structure describing the image format properties of a QNX Screen buffer

Description

If the QNX Screen buffer has one of the formats listed in the QNX Screen Format Equivalence table, then format must have the equivalent Vulkan format listed in the table. Otherwise, format may be FORMAT_UNDEFINED, indicating the QNX Screen buffer can only be used with an external format. The formatFeatures member must include FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_BIT and should include FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_LINEAR_BIT and FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_YCBCR_CONVERSION_LINEAR_FILTER_BIT.

VkExternalFormatQNX - Structure containing a QNX Screen buffer external format

Description

If externalFormat is zero, the effect is as if the ExternalFormatQNX structure was not present. Otherwise, the image will have the specified external format.

Functionality in this row is always available.

The Functionality supported for QNX Screen buffer features table summarizes the functionality enabled by the PhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryScreenBufferFeaturesQNX structure. Each entry in the body of the table summarizes the functionality that can be used when the given features are supported and enabled. This summarizes Valid Usage statements that are added elsewhere in this specification.

If the PhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryScreenBufferFeaturesQNX structure is included in the pNext chain of the PhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to getPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a Device with any features described by PhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryScreenBufferFeaturesQNX, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to TRUE, to the pNext chain of DeviceCreateInfo when creating the Device.
