VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV(3)

Name

VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV - Structure describing shader module identifier properties of an implementation

C Specification

The VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing_invocation_reorder
typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV {
    VkStructureType                         sType;
    void*                                   pNext;
    VkRayTracingInvocationReorderModeEXT    rayTracingInvocationReorderReorderingHint;
} VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • rayTracingInvocationReorderReorderingHint is a hint indicating if the implementation will actually reorder at the reorder calls.

Description

Because the extension changes how hits are managed there is a compatibility reason to expose the extension even when an implementation does not have sorting active.

If the VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each corresponding implementation-dependent property.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingInvocationReorderPropertiesNV-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_RAY_TRACING_INVOCATION_REORDER_PROPERTIES_NV
