C Specification

To query the optional capture handle information of shaders in the ray tracing pipeline, call:

// Provided by VK_KHR_ray_tracing_pipeline
VkResult vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR(
    VkDevice                                    device,
    VkPipeline                                  pipeline,
    uint32_t                                    firstGroup,
    uint32_t                                    groupCount,
    size_t                                      dataSize,
    void*                                       pData);

Parameters

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

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

  • firstGroup is the index of the first group to retrieve a handle for from the VkRayTracingPipelineCreateInfoKHR::pGroups array.

  • groupCount is the number of shader handles to retrieve.

  • dataSize is the size in bytes of the buffer pointed to by pData.

  • pData is a pointer to a user-allocated buffer where the results will be written.

Description

Valid Usage

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-pipeline-04620
    pipeline must be a ray tracing pipeline

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-firstGroup-04051
    firstGroup must be less than the number of shader groups in pipeline

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-firstGroup-03483
    The sum of firstGroup and groupCount must be less than or equal to the number of shader groups in pipeline

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-dataSize-03484
    dataSize must be at least VkPhysicalDeviceRayTracingPipelinePropertiesKHR::shaderGroupHandleCaptureReplaySize × groupCount

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-rayTracingPipelineShaderGroupHandleCaptureReplay-03606

    device must be a valid VkDevice handle

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-pipeline-parameter
    pipeline must be a valid VkPipeline handle

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-pData-parameter
    pData must be a valid pointer to an array of dataSize bytes

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-dataSize-arraylength
    dataSize must be greater than 0

  • VUID-vkGetRayTracingCaptureReplayShaderGroupHandlesKHR-pipeline-parent
    pipeline must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from device
