| === Description |
| |
| Vulkan apps may wish to export or import device memory handles to or from |
| other logical devices, instances or APIs. |
| |
| This memory sharing can eliminate copies of memory buffers when different |
| subsystems need to interoperate on them. |
| Sharing memory buffers may also facilitate a better distribution of |
| processing workload for more complex memory manipulation pipelines. |
