vkQueueWaitIdle(3)

Name

vkQueueWaitIdle - Wait for a queue to become idle

C Specification

To wait on the host for the completion of outstanding queue operations for a given queue, call:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
VkResult vkQueueWaitIdle(
    VkQueue                                     queue);

Parameters

  • queue is the queue on which to wait.

Description

vkQueueWaitIdle is equivalent to having submitted a valid fence to every previously executed queue submission command that accepts a fence, then waiting for all of those fences to signal using vkWaitForFences with an infinite timeout and waitAll set to VK_TRUE.

Even though vkQueuePresentKHR does not have a fence parameter, it does accept a fence through VkSwapchainPresentFenceInfoEXT.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkQueueWaitIdle-queue-parameter
    queue must be a valid VkQueue handle

Host Synchronization
  • Host access to queue must be externally synchronized

Return Codes
Success
  • VK_SUCCESS

Failure
  • VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST

  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY

  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY

  • VK_ERROR_UNKNOWN

  • VK_ERROR_VALIDATION_FAILED
