# vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT - Close a command buffer label region

## C Specification

A command buffer label region can be closed by calling:

    void vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer into which the command is recorded.

## Description

An application may open a debug label region in one command buffer and close it in another, or otherwise split debug label regions across multiple command buffers or multiple queue submissions. When viewed from the linear series of submissions to a single queue, the calls to vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT and vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT must be matched and balanced.

Valid Usage

- There must be an outstanding `vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT` command prior to the `vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT` on the queue that `commandBuffer` is submitted to

- If `commandBuffer` is a secondary command buffer, there must be an outstanding `vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT` command recorded to `commandBuffer` that has not previously been ended by a call to `vkCmdEndDebugUtilsLabelEXT`.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `commandBuffer` must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

- `commandBuffer` must be in the recording state

- The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support graphics, or compute operations

Host Synchronization

- Host access to the `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must be externally synchronized
