# VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR - Structure specifying data and length of a pipeline binary

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_pipeline_binary
    typedef struct VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR {
        size_t    dataSize;
        void*     pData;
    } VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR;

## Members

- `dataSize` is the size of the `pData` buffer in bytes.

- `pData` is a pointer to a buffer of `size` bytes that contains pipeline binary data obtained from `vkGetPipelineBinaryDataKHR`.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR-pData-parameter
  `pData` must be a valid pointer to an array of `dataSize` bytes

- VUID-VkPipelineBinaryDataKHR-dataSize-arraylength
  `dataSize` must be greater than `0`
