Struct vulkano::buffer::cpu_access::CpuAccessibleBuffer

pub struct CpuAccessibleBuffer<T: ?Sized, A = PotentialDedicatedAllocation<StdMemoryPoolAlloc>> { /* fields omitted */ }

Buffer whose content is accessible by the CPU.

Setting the host_cached field on the various initializers to true will make it so the CpuAccessibleBuffer prefers to allocate from host_cached memory. Host cached memory caches GPU data on the CPU side. This can be more performant in cases where the cpu needs to read data coming off the GPU.

Implementations

impl<T> CpuAccessibleBuffer<T>

pub fn from_data(
    device: Arc<Device>,
    usage: BufferUsage,
    host_cached: bool,
    data: T
) -> Result<Arc<CpuAccessibleBuffer<T>>, DeviceMemoryAllocError> where
    T: Content + Copy + 'static, 

Builds a new buffer with some data in it. Only allowed for sized data.

pub unsafe fn uninitialized(
    device: Arc<Device>,
    usage: BufferUsage,
    host_cached: bool
) -> Result<Arc<CpuAccessibleBuffer<T>>, DeviceMemoryAllocError>

Builds a new uninitialized buffer. Only allowed for sized data.

impl<T> CpuAccessibleBuffer<[T]>

pub fn from_iter<I>(
    device: Arc<Device>,
    usage: BufferUsage,
    host_cached: bool,
    data: I
) -> Result<Arc<CpuAccessibleBuffer<[T]>>, DeviceMemoryAllocError> where
    I: ExactSizeIterator<Item = T>,
    T: Content + 'static, 

Builds a new buffer that contains an array T. The initial data comes from an iterator that produces that list of Ts.

pub unsafe fn uninitialized_array(
    device: Arc<Device>,
    len: usize,
    usage: BufferUsage,
    host_cached: bool
) -> Result<Arc<CpuAccessibleBuffer<[T]>>, DeviceMemoryAllocError>

Builds a new buffer. Can be used for arrays.

impl<T: ?Sized> CpuAccessibleBuffer<T>

pub unsafe fn raw<'a, I>(
    device: Arc<Device>,
    size: usize,
    usage: BufferUsage,
    host_cached: bool,
    queue_families: I
) -> Result<Arc<CpuAccessibleBuffer<T>>, DeviceMemoryAllocError> where
    I: IntoIterator<Item = QueueFamily<'a>>, 

Builds a new buffer without checking the size.

Safety

You must ensure that the size that you pass is correct for T.

impl<T: ?Sized, A> CpuAccessibleBuffer<T, A>

pub fn queue_families(&self) -> Vec<QueueFamily<'_>>

Returns the queue families this buffer can be used on.

impl<T: ?Sized, A> CpuAccessibleBuffer<T, A> where
    T: Content + 'static,
    A: MemoryPoolAlloc, 

pub fn read(&self) -> Result<ReadLock<'_, T>, ReadLockError>

Locks the buffer in order to read its content from the CPU.

If the buffer is currently used in exclusive mode by the GPU, this function will return an error. Similarly if you called write() on the buffer and haven’t dropped the lock, this function will return an error as well.

After this function successfully locks the buffer, any attempt to submit a command buffer that uses it in exclusive mode will fail. You can still submit this buffer for non-exclusive accesses (ie. reads).

pub fn write(&self) -> Result<WriteLock<'_, T>, WriteLockError>

Locks the buffer in order to write its content from the CPU.

If the buffer is currently in use by the GPU, this function will return an error. Similarly if you called read() on the buffer and haven’t dropped the lock, this function will return an error as well.

After this function successfully locks the buffer, any attempt to submit a command buffer that uses it and any attempt to call read() will return an error.

Trait Implementations

impl<T: ?Sized, A> BufferAccess for CpuAccessibleBuffer<T, A> where
    T: 'static + Send + Sync, 

fn inner(&self) -> BufferInner<'_>

Returns the inner information about this buffer.

fn size(&self) -> usize

Returns the size of the buffer in bytes.

fn conflicts_buffer(&self, other: &dyn BufferAccess) -> bool

Returns true if an access to self potentially overlaps the same memory as an access to other.

fn conflicts_image(&self, other: &dyn ImageAccess) -> bool

Returns true if an access to self potentially overlaps the same memory as an access to other.

fn conflict_key(&self) -> (u64, usize)

Returns a key that uniquely identifies the buffer. Two buffers or images that potentially overlap in memory must return the same key.

fn try_gpu_lock(
    &self,
    exclusive_access: bool,
    _: &Queue
) -> Result<(), AccessError>

Locks the resource for usage on the GPU. Returns an error if the lock can’t be acquired.

unsafe fn increase_gpu_lock(&self)

Locks the resource for usage on the GPU. Supposes that the resource is already locked, and simply increases the lock by one.

unsafe fn unlock(&self)

Unlocks the resource previously acquired with try_gpu_lock or increase_gpu_lock.

fn as_buffer_slice(&self) -> BufferSlice<Self::Content, &Self> where
