Lowering/layout is pretty much the same as direct descriptors. The caveats is that since the descriptor buffers are not visible from the binding tables we can't promote anything to the binding table (except push descriptors). The reason for this is that there is nothing that prevents an application to use both types of descriptors and because descriptor buffers have visible address + capture replay, we can't merge the 2 types in the same virtual address space location (limited to 4Gb max, limited 2Gb with binding tables). If we had the guarantee that both are not going to be used at the same time, we could consider a 2Gb VA for descriptor buffers.
