- Customization: Predefine appropriate macros to provide your own implementation of all external facilities used by the library, from assert, mutex, and atomic, to vector and linked list.
|
||||
- Support for memory mapping, reference-counted internally. Support for persistently mapped memory: Just allocate with appropriate flag and you get access to mapped pointer.
|
||||
- Support for non-coherent memory. Functions that flush/invalidate memory. `nonCoherentAtomSize` is respected automatically.
|
||||
- Support for sparse binding and sparse residency: Convenience functions that allocate or free multiple memory pages at once.
|
||||
- Custom memory pools: Create a pool with desired parameters (e.g. fixed or limited maximum size) and allocate memory out of it.
|
||||
- Linear allocator: Create a pool with linear algorithm and use it for much faster allocations and deallocations in free-at-once, stack, double stack, or ring buffer fashion.
|
||||
- Support for VK_KHR_dedicated_allocation extension: Just enable it and it will be used automatically by the library.

Features deliberately excluded from the scope of this library:
|
||||
|
||||
- Support for sparse binding and sparse residency. You can still use these
|

features (when supported by the device) with VMA. You just need to do it
|

yourself. Allocate memory pages with vmaAllocateMemory().
|
||||
Any explicit support for sparse binding/residency would rather
|
||||
require another, higher-level library on top of VMA.
|

- Data transfer - issuing commands that transfer data between buffers or images, any usage of
|
||||
`VkCommandBuffer` or `VkQueue` and related synchronization is responsibility of the user.
|
||||
- Data transfer. Uploading (straming) and downloading data of buffers and images
|
||||
between CPU and GPU memory and related synchronization is responsibility of the user.
|
||||
- Allocations for imported/exported external memory. They tend to require
|
||||
explicit memory type index and dedicated allocation anyway, so they don't
|
||||
interact with main features of this library. Such special purpose allocations
