# VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT - Structure describing whether list type primitives can support primitive restart

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_primitive_topology_list_restart
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           primitiveTopologyListRestart;
        VkBool32           primitiveTopologyPatchListRestart;
    } VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT;

## Members

This structure describes the following features:

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

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

- `primitiveTopologyListRestart` indicates that list type primitives, VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_POINT_LIST, VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_LINE_LIST, VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_TRIANGLE_LIST, VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_LINE_LIST_WITH_ADJACENCY and VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_TRIANGLE_LIST_WITH_ADJACENCY, can use the primitive restart index value in index buffers.

- `primitiveTopologyPatchListRestart` indicates that the VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_PATCH_LIST topology can use the primitive restart index value in index buffers.

## Description

If the `VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by `VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT`, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePrimitiveTopologyListRestartFeaturesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_LIST_RESTART_FEATURES_EXT
