# VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 - Structure specifying physical device properties

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2` structure is defined as:

    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 {
        VkStructureType               sType;
        void*                         pNext;
        VkPhysicalDeviceProperties    properties;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2;

or the equivalent

    typedef VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR;

## Members

- `sType` is the type of this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to an extension-specific structure.

- `properties` is a VkPhysicalDeviceProperties structure describing properties of the physical device. This structure is written with the same values as if it were written by vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties.

## Description

The `pNext` chain of this structure is used to extend the structure with properties defined by extensions.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PROPERTIES_2`

- Each `pNext` member of any structure (including this one) in the `pNext` chain must be either `NULL` or a pointer to a valid instance of VkPhysicalDeviceBlendOperationAdvancedPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceConservativeRasterizationPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceCooperativeMatrixPropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceDepthStencilResolveProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsPropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceDiscardRectanglePropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryHostPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceFloatControlsProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMapPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceIDProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceInlineUniformBlockPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceLineRasterizationPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceMaintenance3Properties, VkPhysicalDeviceMeshShaderPropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceMultiviewPerViewAttributesPropertiesNVX, VkPhysicalDeviceMultiviewProperties, VkPhysicalDevicePCIBusInfoPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDevicePerformanceQueryPropertiesKHR, VkPhysicalDevicePointClippingProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceProtectedMemoryProperties, VkPhysicalDevicePushDescriptorPropertiesKHR, VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingPropertiesKHR, VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingPropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceSampleLocationsPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceSamplerFilterMinmaxProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderCoreProperties2AMD, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderCorePropertiesAMD, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderSMBuiltinsPropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV, VkPhysicalDeviceSubgroupProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceSubgroupSizeControlPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceTimelineSemaphoreProperties, VkPhysicalDeviceTransformFeedbackPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeDivisorPropertiesEXT, VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan11Properties, or VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Properties

- The `sType` value of each struct in the `pNext` chain must be unique
