C Specification
If the pNext list of VkImageCreateInfo includes a
VkImageCompressionControlEXT structure, then that structure describes
compression controls for this image.
The VkImageCompressionControlEXT structure is defined as:
// Provided by VK_EXT_image_compression_control
typedef struct VkImageCompressionControlEXT {
    VkStructureType                         sType;
    const void*                             pNext;
    VkImageCompressionFlagsEXT              flags;
    uint32_t                                compressionControlPlaneCount;
    VkImageCompressionFixedRateFlagsEXT*    pFixedRateFlags;
} VkImageCompressionControlEXT;Members
- 
sTypeis a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
- 
pNextisNULLor a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
- 
flagsis a bitmask of VkImageCompressionFlagBitsEXT describing compression controls for the image.
- 
compressionControlPlaneCountis the number of entries in thepFixedRateFlagsarray.
- 
pFixedRateFlagsisNULLor a pointer to an array of VkImageCompressionFixedRateFlagsEXT bitfields describing allowed fixed-rate compression rates of each image plane. It is ignored ifflagsdoes not includeVK_IMAGE_COMPRESSION_FIXED_RATE_EXPLICIT_EXT.
Description
If enabled, fixed-rate compression is done in an implementation-defined manner and may be applied at block granularity. In that case, a write to an individual texel may modify the value of other texels in the same block.
| Note | Some combinations of compression properties may not be supported. For example, some implementations may not support different fixed-rate compression rates per plane of a multi-planar format and will not be able to enable fixed-rate compression for any plane if the requested rates differ. |
