# VkPipelineInfoKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPipelineInfoKHR - Structure describing a pipeline

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPipelineInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_pipeline_executable_properties
    typedef struct VkPipelineInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        const void*        pNext;
        VkPipeline         pipeline;
    } VkPipelineInfoKHR;

or the equivalent

    // Provided by VK_EXT_pipeline_properties
    typedef VkPipelineInfoKHR VkPipelineInfoEXT;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `pipeline` is a `VkPipeline` handle.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPipelineInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PIPELINE_INFO_KHR`

- VUID-VkPipelineInfoKHR-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

- VUID-VkPipelineInfoKHR-pipeline-parameter
  `pipeline` must be a valid VkPipeline handle
