Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

If the `pNext` chain of VkSubmitInfo includes a `VkProtectedSubmitInfo` structure, then the structure indicates whether the batch is protected. The `VkProtectedSubmitInfo` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
    typedef struct VkProtectedSubmitInfo {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        const void*        pNext;
        VkBool32           protectedSubmit;
    } VkProtectedSubmitInfo;

## Members

- `protectedSubmit` specifies whether the batch is protected. If `protectedSubmit` is VK_TRUE, the batch is protected. If `protectedSubmit` is VK_FALSE, the batch is unprotected. If the `VkSubmitInfo`::`pNext` chain does not include this structure, the batch is unprotected.

## Description
