VkAccelerationStructureInfoNV

The VkAccelerationStructureInfoNV structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkAccelerationStructureInfoNV {
    VkStructureType sType;
    const void* pNext;
    VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV type;
    VkBuildAccelerationStructureFlagsNV flags;
    uint32_t instanceCount;
    uint32_t geometryCount;
    const VkGeometryNV* pGeometries;
} VkAccelerationStructureInfoNV;

• sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
• pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
• type is a VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV value specifying the type of acceleration structure that will be created.
• flags is a bitmask of VkBuildAccelerationStructureFlagBitsNV specifying additional parameters of the acceleration structure.
• instanceCount specifies the number of instances that will be in the new acceleration structure.
• geometryCount specifies the number of geometries that will be in the new acceleration structure.
• pGeometries is a pointer to an array of geometryCount
  VkGeometryNV structures containing the scene data being passed into the acceleration structure.

VkAccelerationStructureInfoNV contains information that is used both for acceleration structure creation with vkCreateAccelerationStructureNV and in combination with the actual geometric data to build the acceleration structure with vkCmdBuildAccelerationStructureNV.
