22=== Description
23
24An application may wish to reference device fences in multiple Vulkan
25logical devices or instances, in multiple processes, and/or in multiple
26APIs.
27This extension provides a set of capability queries and handle definitions
28that allow an application to determine what types of "`external`" fence
29handles an implementation supports for a given set of use cases.

31=== Promotion to Vulkan 1.1

34KHR suffix omitted.

36the core functionality.
