VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_YCBCR_CONVERSION_CHROMA_RECONSTRUCTION_EXPLICIT_FORCEABLE_BIT specifies that reconstruction can be forcibly made explicit by setting VkSamplerYcbcrConversionCreateInfo::forceExplicitReconstruction to VK_TRUE. If the format being queried supports VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_YCBCR_CONVERSION_CHROMA_RECONSTRUCTION_EXPLICIT_BIT it must also support VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_YCBCR_CONVERSION_CHROMA_RECONSTRUCTION_EXPLICIT_FORCEABLE_BIT.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_DISJOINT_BIT specifies that a multi-planar image can have the VK_IMAGE_CREATE_DISJOINT_BIT set during image creation. An implementation must not set VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_DISJOINT_BIT for single-plane formats.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_FRAGMENT_DENSITY_MAP_BIT_EXT specifies that an image view can be used as a fragment density map attachment.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT specifies that the format can be used to create a buffer view that can be bound to a VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER descriptor.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT specifies that the format can be used to create a buffer view that can be bound to a VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER descriptor.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_ATOMIC_BIT specifies that atomic operations are supported on VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER with this format.

VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_VERTEX_BUFFER_BIT specifies that the format can be used as a vertex attribute format (VkVertexInputAttributeDescription::format).

physicalDevice is the physical device from which to query the format properties.

format is the format whose properties are queried.

pFormatProperties is a pointer to a VkFormatProperties2 structure in which physical device properties for format are returned.

sType is the type of this structure.

pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

formatProperties is a VkFormatProperties structure describing features supported by the requested format.

sType is the type of this structure.

pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

drmFormatModifierCount is an inout parameter related to the number of modifiers compatible with the format, as described below.

pDrmFormatModifierProperties is either NULL or an array of VkDrmFormatModifierPropertiesEXT structures.

drmFormatModifier is a Linux DRM format modifier.

drmFormatModifierPlaneCount is the number of memory planes in any image created with format and drmFormatModifier. An image’s memory planecount is distinct from its format planecount, as explained below.

drmFormatModifierTilingFeatures is a bitmask of VkFormatFeatureFlagBits that are supported by any image created with format and drmFormatModifier.
