# VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR - Structure describing fault reporting properties for the physical device

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_device_fault
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        uint32_t           maxDeviceFaultCount;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR;

## Members

The members of the `VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR` structure describe the following:

## Description

- `maxDeviceFaultCount` is the maximum number of instances of VkDeviceFaultInfoKHR that will be retained by the implementation. This must be greater than or equal to 1. If the application does not retrieve fault reports and overflow occurs, the oldest fault reports will be overwritten by the most recent record.

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each corresponding implementation-dependent property.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceFaultPropertiesKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_FAULT_PROPERTIES_KHR

Structure Chaining
