^^^^^^^^^^^^

|
||||
The PIPE_USAGE enums are hints about the expected usage pattern of a resource.
|
||||
Note that drivers must always support read and write CPU access at any time
|
||||
no matter which hint they got.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DEFAULT``: Expect many uploads to the resource, intermixed with draws.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DYNAMIC``: Expect many uploads to the resource, intermixed with draws.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STATIC``: Same as immutable (?)
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_IMMUTABLE``: Resource will not be changed after first upload.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STREAM``: Upload will be followed by draw, followed by upload, ...
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DEFAULT``: Optimized for fast GPU access.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_IMMUTABLE``: Optimized for fast GPU access and the resource is
|
||||
not expected to be mapped or changed (even by the GPU) after the first upload.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DYNAMIC``: Expect frequent write-only CPU access. What is
|
||||
uploaded is expected to be used at least several times by the GPU.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STATIC``: Same as PIPE_USAGE_DEFAULT.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STREAM``: Expect frequent write-only CPU access. What is
|
||||
uploaded is expected to be used only once by the GPU.
|
||||
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STAGING``: Optimized for fast CPU access.
