vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV(3)

C Specification

To query acceleration structure size parameters call:

// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing
void vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    uint32_t                                    accelerationStructureCount,
    const VkAccelerationStructureNV*            pAccelerationStructures,
    VkQueryType                                 queryType,
    VkQueryPool                                 queryPool,
    uint32_t                                    firstQuery);

Parameters

commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.
accelerationStructureCount is the count of acceleration structures for which to query the property.
pAccelerationStructures is a pointer to an array of existing previously built acceleration structures.
queryType is a VkQueryType value specifying the type of queries managed by the pool.
queryPool is the query pool that will manage the results of the query.
firstQuery is the first query index within the query pool that will contain the accelerationStructureCount number of results.

Description

Accesses to any of the acceleration structures listed in pAccelerationStructures must be synchronized with the VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_BUILD_BIT_KHR pipeline stage and an access type of VK_ACCESS_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_READ_BIT_KHR.

Valid Usage

VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-queryPool-03755
queryPool must have been created with a queryType matching queryType
VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-queryPool-03756
The queries identified by queryPool and firstQuery must be unavailable
VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-accelerationStructure-03757
accelerationStructure must be bound completely and contiguously to a single VkDeviceMemory object via vkBindAccelerationStructureMemoryNV
VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-pAccelerationStructures-04958
All acceleration structures in pAccelerationStructures must have been built prior to the execution of this command
VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-pAccelerationStructures-06215
All acceleration structures in pAccelerationStructures must have been built with VK_BUILD_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_ALLOW_COMPACTION_BIT_KHR if queryType is VK_QUERY_TYPE_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_COMPACTED_SIZE_NV
VUID-vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV-queryType-06216
queryType must be VK_QUERY_TYPE_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_COMPACTED_SIZE_NV
