C Specification

// Provided by VK_ARM_pipeline_opacity_micromap
typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineOpacityMicromapFeaturesARM {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    void*              pNext;
    VkBool32           pipelineOpacityMicromap;
} VkPhysicalDevicePipelineOpacityMicromapFeaturesARM;

Members

This structure describes the following features:

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

Description

  • pipelineOpacityMicromap indicates if a pipeline can declare if it can be used with an acceleration structure referencing an opacity micromap, or not.

If the VkPhysicalDevicePipelineOpacityMicromapFeaturesARM structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by VkPhysicalDevicePipelineOpacityMicromapFeaturesARM, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePipelineOpacityMicromapFeaturesARM-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PIPELINE_OPACITY_MICROMAP_FEATURES_ARM
