Description
This extension expands support for using VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR images
as color attachments when all the color attachments in the render pass
instance have VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR tiling.
This extension adds a new flag bit
VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_2_LINEAR_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_BIT_NV that extends the
existing VkFormatFeatureFlagBits2KHR bits.
This flag can be set for renderable color formats in the
VkFormatProperties3KHR::linearTilingFeatures format properties
structure member.
Formats with the VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_2_LINEAR_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_BIT_NV
flag may be used as color attachments as long as all the color attachments
in the render pass instance have VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR tiling, and
the formats their images views are created with have
VkFormatProperties3KHR::linearTilingFeatures which include
VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_2_LINEAR_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_BIT_NV.
This extension supports both dynamic rendering and traditional render
passes.
