C Specification

// Provided by VK_KHR_ray_tracing_pipeline with VK_NV_cluster_acceleration_structure
typedef struct VkRayTracingPipelineClusterAccelerationStructureCreateInfoNV {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    void*              pNext;
    VkBool32           allowClusterAccelerationStructure;
} VkRayTracingPipelineClusterAccelerationStructureCreateInfoNV;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • allowClusterAccelerationStructure controls if cluster acceleration structures are allowed in the ray tracing pipeline.

Description

If no cluster acceleration structures are present in the ray tracing pipeline, allowClusterAccelerationStructure should not be used to prevent traversal penalty on some implementations.

Valid Usage
Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkRayTracingPipelineClusterAccelerationStructureCreateInfoNV-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_RAY_TRACING_PIPELINE_CLUSTER_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_CREATE_INFO_NV
