This device extension allows an application that uses the
|
|
`<<VK_KHR_swapchain>>` extension to obtain information about the
|
|
presentation engine's display, to obtain timing information about each
|
|
present, and to schedule a present to happen no earlier than a desired time.
|
|
An application can use this to minimize various visual anomalies (e.g.
|
|
stuttering).
|
|
|
|
Traditional game and real-time animation applications need to correctly
|
|
position their geometry for when the presentable image will be presented to
|
|
the user.
|
|
To accomplish this, applications need various timing information about the
|
|
presentation engine's display.
|
|
They need to know when presentable images were actually presented, and when
|
|
they could have been presented.
|
|
Applications also need to tell the presentation engine to display an image
|
|
no sooner than a given time.
|
|
This allows the application to avoid stuttering, so the animation looks
|
|
smooth to the user.
|
|
|
|
This extension treats variable-refresh-rate (VRR) displays as if they are
|
|
fixed-refresh-rate (FRR) displays.

====
|
|
The example code for the this extension (like the `<<VK_KHR_surface>>` and
|
|
`VK_GOOGLE_display_timing` extensions) is contained in the cube demo that is
|
|
shipped with the official Khronos SDK, and is being kept up-to-date in that
|
|
location (see:
|
|
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/blob/master/demos/cube.c
|
|
).
