# vkGetDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkGetDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR - Query present capabilities from other physical devices

## C Specification

A logical device that represents multiple physical devices may support presenting from images on more than one physical device, or combining images from multiple physical devices.

To query these capabilities, call:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1 with VK_KHR_swapchain, VK_KHR_device_group with VK_KHR_surface
    VkResult vkGetDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR*        pDeviceGroupPresentCapabilities);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device.

- `pDeviceGroupPresentCapabilities` is a pointer to a VkDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR structure in which the device’s capabilities are returned.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkGetDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkGetDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR-pDeviceGroupPresentCapabilities-parameter
  `pDeviceGroupPresentCapabilities` must be a valid pointer to a VkDeviceGroupPresentCapabilitiesKHR structure

Return Codes

On success, this command returns

  - VK_SUCCESS

On failure, this command returns

  - VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY

  - VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY

  - VK_ERROR_UNKNOWN

  - VK_ERROR_VALIDATION_FAILED
