VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureInfoNV(3)

Name

VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureInfoNV - Structure describing build parameters for a PTLAS

C Specification

The VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureInfoNV structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_NV_partitioned_acceleration_structure
typedef struct VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureInfoNV {
    VkStructureType                                       sType;
    void*                                                 pNext;
    VkPartitionedAccelerationStructureInstancesInputNV    input;
    VkDeviceAddress                                       srcAccelerationStructureData;
    VkDeviceAddress                                       dstAccelerationStructureData;
    VkDeviceAddress                                       scratchData;
    VkDeviceAddress                                       srcInfos;
    VkDeviceAddress                                       srcInfosCount;
} VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureInfoNV;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • input is a VkPartitionedAccelerationStructureInstancesInputNV structure describing the instance and partition count information in the PTLAS.

  • srcAccelerationStructureData is NULL or an address of a previously built PTLAS. If non-NULL, the PTLAS stored at this address is used as a basis to create new PTLAS.

  • dstAccelerationStructureData is the address to store the built PTLAS.

  • scratchData is the device address of scratch memory that will be used during PTLAS build.

  • srcInfos is the device address of an array of VkBuildPartitionedAccelerationStructureIndirectCommandNV structures describing the type of operation to perform.

  • srcInfosCount is a device address containing the size of srcInfos array.

Description

Members srcAccelerationStructureData and dstAccelerationStructureData may be the same or different. If they are the same, the update happens in-place. Otherwise, the destination acceleration structure is updated and the source is not modified.
