## Name

vkCopyMemoryToImageEXT - Copy data from host memory into an image

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To copy data from host memory to an image object, call:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_host_image_copy
    VkResult vkCopyMemoryToImageEXT(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        const VkCopyMemoryToImageInfoEXT*           pCopyMemoryToImageInfo);

## Parameters

- `device` is the device which owns `pCopyMemoryToImageInfo->dstImage`.

- `pCopyMemoryToImageInfo` is a pointer to a VkCopyMemoryToImageInfoEXT structure describing the copy parameters.

## Description

This command is functionally similar to vkCmdCopyBufferToImage2, except it is executed on the host and reads from host memory instead of a buffer.

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkCopyMemoryToImageEXT-hostImageCopy-09058
  The `hostImageCopy` feature must be enabled

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkCopyMemoryToImageEXT-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkCopyMemoryToImageEXT-pCopyMemoryToImageInfo-parameter
  `pCopyMemoryToImageInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkCopyMemoryToImageInfoEXT structure

Return Codes

On success, this command returns

  - `VK_SUCCESS`

On failure, this command returns

  - `VK_ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED`

  - `VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY`

  - `VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY`

  - `VK_ERROR_MEMORY_MAP_FAILED`
