# vkDestroyCudaModuleNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkDestroyCudaModuleNV - Destroy a CUDA module

## C Specification

To destroy a CUDA shader module, call:

    // Provided by VK_NV_cuda_kernel_launch
    void vkDestroyCudaModuleNV(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkCudaModuleNV                              module,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device that destroys the shader module.

- `module` is the handle of the CUDA module to destroy.

- `pAllocator` controls host memory allocation as described in the Memory Allocation chapter.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkDestroyCudaModuleNV-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkDestroyCudaModuleNV-module-parameter
  `module` must be a valid VkCudaModuleNV handle

- VUID-vkDestroyCudaModuleNV-pAllocator-parameter
  If `pAllocator` is not `NULL`, `pAllocator` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

- VUID-vkDestroyCudaModuleNV-module-parent
  `module` must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from `device`
