20=== Description
21
22An application may wish to reference device fences in multiple Vulkan
23logical devices or instances, in multiple processes, and/or in multiple
24APIs.
25This extension provides a set of capability queries and handle definitions
26that allow an application to determine what types of "`external`" fence
27handles an implementation supports for a given set of use cases.
