Module spirv_std::storage_class

Storage Classes

Class of storage for declared variables. These types act as pointers to values either contained in the GPU's memory. For example; Input<f32> points to a f32 that was provided as input from the pipeline, and Private<f32> points to a f32 in the GPU's global memory. Intermediate values do not form a storage class, and unless stated otherwise, storage class-based restrictions are not restrictions on intermediate objects and their types.

Structs

AtomicCounter	Atomic counter-specific memory.
CallableDataKHR	Used for storing arbitrary data associated with a ray to pass to callables. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
CrossWorkgroup	OpenCL global memory.
Function	Regular function memory.
Generic	For generic pointers, which overload the Function, Workgroup, and CrossWorkgroup Storage Classes.
HitAttributeKHR	Used for storing attributes of geometry intersected by a ray. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
Image	Image memory.
IncomingCallableDataKHR	Used for storing arbitrary data from parent sent to current callable stage invoked from an executeCallable call. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
IncomingRayPayloadKHR	Used for storing attributes of geometry intersected by a ray. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
Input	Input from pipeline.
Output	Output to pipeline.
PhysicalStorageBuffer	Graphics storage buffers using physical addressing. (SPIR-V 1.5+)
Private	Regular global memory.
PushConstant	Push-constant memory.
RayPayloadKHR	Used for storing payload data associated with a ray. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
ShaderRecordBufferKHR	Used for storing data in shader record associated with each unique shader in ray_tracing pipeline. (Requires SPV_KHR_ray_tracing extension)
StorageBuffer	Graphics storage buffers (buffer blocks).
Uniform	Graphics uniform blocks and buffer blocks.
UniformConstant	Graphics uniform memory. OpenCL constant memory.
Workgroup	The OpenGL "shared" storage qualifier. OpenCL local memory.
