# VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT - Structure specifying the extended vertex input attribute description

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_shader_object, VK_EXT_vertex_input_dynamic_state
    typedef struct VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        uint32_t           location;
        uint32_t           binding;
        VkFormat           format;
        uint32_t           offset;
    } VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT;

## Members

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

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

- `location` is the shader input location number for this attribute.

- `binding` is the binding number which this attribute takes its data from.

- `format` is the size and type of the vertex attribute data.

- `offset` is a byte offset of this attribute relative to the start of an element in the vertex input binding.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-location-06228
  `location` must be less than `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits`::`maxVertexInputAttributes`

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-binding-06229
  `binding` must be less than `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits`::`maxVertexInputBindings`

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-offset-06230
  `offset` must be less than or equal to `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits`::`maxVertexInputAttributeOffset`

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-format-04805
  The format features of `format` must contain `VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_VERTEX_BUFFER_BIT`

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-vertexAttributeAccessBeyondStride-04806
  If the `VK_KHR_portability_subset` extension is enabled, and VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR::`vertexAttributeAccessBeyondStride` is `VK_FALSE`, the sum of `offset` plus the size of the vertex attribute data described by `format` must not be greater than `stride` in the VkVertexInputBindingDescription2EXT referenced in `binding`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VERTEX_INPUT_ATTRIBUTE_DESCRIPTION_2_EXT`

- VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription2EXT-format-parameter
  `format` must be a valid VkFormat value
