vkCmdCopyBuffer(3)
===================
Name
----
vkCmdCopyBuffer - Copy data between buffer regions.
C Specification
---------------
include::../protos/vkCmdCopyBuffer.txt[]
Parameters
----------
pname:commandBuffer::
The command buffer into which the copy command is to be placed.
pname:srcBuffer::
The buffer containing the data to be copied.
pname:dstBuffer::
The buffer into which data will be copied.
pname:regionCount::
The number of regions of data to copy.
pname:pRegions::
An array of pname:regionCount regions of data to be copied.
Description
-----------
fname:vkCmdCopyBuffer copies regions of data from a source buffer to a destination
buffer. pname:regionCount regions are copied from pname:srcBuffer to pname:dstBuffer. Each
region is represented by a member of the pname:pRegions array, which is an array of
the slink:VkBufferCopy structure, whose definition is:
include::../structs/VkBufferCopy.txt[]
If any two or more regions within pname:pRegions overlap, the resulting data will be
Change log for April 29, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.12 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 12 for this update. Github Issues: * Change valid usage statements intended to be "sub-points" to be actual sub-points (public issue 66). * Replace double negation in description of slink:VkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:pClearValues (based on public merge 142). * Cleanup minor typos in spec, ref pages and XML, including those proposed in public pull requests 144, 150, 151, 167, 168, 181, and 186. * Use *strict subset* in describing the partial order of memory property types for slink:VkMemoryType, and update the style guide accordingly (public issue 190). * Fix various "a image" -> "an image" typos (public issue 191). * Note in the <<fundamentals-validusage,Valid Usage>> and <<extensions-interactions,Extension Interactions>> sections that structures defined by extensions which may be passed in structure chains using the ptext:pNext member must: include initial ptext:sType and ptext:pNext members (public issue 192). Internal Issues: * Remove duplicate language from the description of the pname:fence parameter to flink:vkQueueSubmit and improve validity language (internal issue 91). * Added documentation for "optional" attribute to XML readme.tex/pdf (internal issue 149). * Clarify the host-side data validity rules and behavior of flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges and flink:vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges (internal issue 266). Other Commits: * Added clarification to flink:vkCmdFillBuffer regarding the use of ename:VK_WHOLE_SIZE. * Fixed and documented implementation of "validextensionstructs" attribute. in XML processing scripts and readme.tex/pdf. * Add missing validity statements to flink:vkResetEvent and flink:vkCmdResetEvent. * Fix validity for the ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_LINEAR_BIT flag. Correct all the draw/dispatch commands to mention optimally tiled images as well as linear tiled images, and say image VIEWS instead of images. Add validity statement to flink:vkCmdBlitImage * Replace the {apiname} macro with hardcoded "Vulkan", now that we've committed to that name. * Add the VK_AMD_rasterization_order extension to vk.xml.

start on multiples of four bytes and have a length which is a multiple of four bytes.

Notes
-----
Although fname:vkCmdCopyBuffer does not generate errors or return a value, enabled
validation layers may detect possible error conditions or potentially undefined
behavior and report this via some other means.
