This is an official documentation for file format used by Vulkan Memory Allocator library
to record and replay sequence of calls to its functions.
This feature can be enabled by using VmaAllocatorCreateInfo::pRecordSettings
structure members.
For details, see main documentation of the library.
Playback can be launched using VmaReplay console application.
Recording is a text file.
Line endings: Unix '\n'
.
Character encoding: single-byte (can be ASCII or UTF-8, whaterver you use in custom strings).
Suggested file extension: csv. File can be processed sequentially - no random access is needed.
Each line forms a separate entry.
Each line consists of a set of values (also called columns), separated by comma ','
(hence "CSV" format - Comma Separated Values).
Number of columns is different in different lines.
Header
First line identifies file format. It must always be:
Vulkan Memory Allocator,Calls recording
Second line identifies format version, where first column is major version and second column is minor version. Formats with only minor version incremented are backward compatible. VmaReplay application supports all older versions. Current version is:
1,8
Configuration
Header is followed by mandatory configuration section (min format version 1.3). It starts with line:
Config,Begin
And ends with line:
Config,End
Between them there can be zero or more lines with configuration options. They store values of various variables from the current environment from the time of recording, like properties and limits of Vulkan physical device, available memory heaps and types, enabled Vulkan extensions, as well macros that configure VMA internals. Supported configuration options are:

Function calls
Remaining lines contain recorded calls to VMA functions. First columns are always:
- Thread ID : uint32
- Time since first call : float, in seconds
- VMA frame index : uint32
- Function name : string
Remaining columns are function parameters and output, depending on function name, which can be:

Data types
bool
Encoded as 0
for false or 1
for true.
uint32, uint64
Encoded in decimal format.
pointer
Encoded in hexadecimal format.
pUserData
If pUserData
was a pointer, it is encoded as hexadecimal string.
If VMA_ALLOCATION_CREATE_USER_DATA_COPY_STRING_BIT
was used with the allocation, the string is written as-is.
It may contain additional commas.
It should not contain end-of-line characters - results are then undefined.
list of (...) (min format version: 1.5)
An ordered sequence of values of some type, separated by single space.
