The +VK_KHR_xlib_surface+ extension is an instance extension.
|
|
It provides a mechanism to create a slink:VkSurfaceKHR object (defined by
|
|
the +VK_KHR_surface+ extension) that refers to an X11 code:Window, using the
|
|
Xlib client-side library, as well as a query to determine support for
|
|
rendering via Xlib.

=== New Enums

|
=== New Structures

* slink:VkXlibSurfaceCreateInfoKHR

=== New Functions

|
|
* flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceXlibPresentationSupportKHR
|
|
|
|
=== Issues
|
|
|
|
1) Does X11 need a way to query for compatibility between a particular
|
|
physical device and a specific screen? This would be a more general query
|
|
than flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceSupportKHR : if it returned true, then
|
|
the physical device could be assumed to support presentation to any window
|
|
on that screen.
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: Yes, this is needed for toolkits that want to create a
|
|
slink:VkDevice before creating a window.
|
|
To ensure the query is reliable, it must be made against a particular X
|
|
visual rather than the screen in general.
|
|
|
|
=== Version History
|
|
|
|
* Revision 1, 2015-09-23 (Jesse Hall)
|
|
- Initial draft, based on the previous contents of VK_EXT_KHR_swapchain
|
|
(later renamed VK_EXT_KHR_surface).
|
|
|
|
* Revision 2, 2015-10-02 (James Jones)
|
|
- Added presentation support query for (Display*, VisualID) pair.
|
|
- Removed "root" parameter from CreateXlibSurfaceKHR(), as it is
|
|
redundant when a window on the same screen is specified as well.
|
|
- Added appropriate X errors.
|
|
- Adjusted wording of issue #1 and added agreed upon resolution.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 3, 2015-10-14 (Ian Elliott)
|
|
- Renamed this extension from VK_EXT_KHR_x11_surface to
|
|
VK_EXT_KHR_xlib_surface.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 4, 2015-10-26 (Ian Elliott)
|
|
- Renamed from VK_EXT_KHR_xlib_surface to VK_KHR_xlib_surface.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 5, 2015-11-03 (Daniel Rakos)
|
|
- Added allocation callbacks to vkCreateXlibSurfaceKHR.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 6, 2015-11-28 (Daniel Rakos)
|
|
- Updated the surface create function to take a pCreateInfo structure.
