C Specification

To compile a deferred shader in a pipeline call:

// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing
VkResult vkCompileDeferredNV(
    VkDevice                                    device,
    VkPipeline                                  pipeline,
    uint32_t                                    shader);

Parameters

  • device is the logical device containing the ray tracing pipeline.

  • pipeline is the ray tracing pipeline object containing the shaders.

  • shader is the index of the shader to compile.

Description

Valid Usage

    pipeline must be a ray tracing pipeline

  • VUID-vkCompileDeferredNV-pipeline-02237
    pipeline must have been created with VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_DEFER_COMPILE_BIT_NV

  • VUID-vkCompileDeferredNV-shader-02238
    shader must not have been called as a deferred compile before

Valid Usage (Implicit)
