Module driver 

Vulkan 1.2 interface based on smart pointers.

Resources

Each resource contains an opaque Vulkan object handle and an information structure which describes the object. Resources also contain an atomic AccessType state value which is used to maintain consistency in any system which accesses the resource.

The following resources are available:

• AccelerationStructure
• Buffer
• Image

Pipelines

Pipelines allow you to run shader code which read and write resources using graphics hardware.

Each pipeline contains an opaque Vulkan object handle and an information structure which describes the configuration and shaders. They are immutable once created.

The following pipelines are available:

• ComputePipeline
• GraphicPipeline
• RayTracePipeline

Re-exports

pub use ash;

Structs

CommandBuffer

Represents a Vulkan command buffer to which some work has been submitted.

Instance

There is no global state in Vulkan and all per-application state is stored in a VkInstance object.

Defines all potential resource usages

DriverError

Describes the general category of all graphics driver failure cases.

Functions

format_texel_block_extent

Returns the extent of a block of texels for the given Vulkan format. Uncompressed formats typically have a block extent of (1, 1). See Representation and Texel Block Size

format_texel_block_size

Returns number of bytes used to store one texel block (a single addressable element of an uncompressed image, or a single compressed block of a compressed image) See Representation and Texel Block Size

Type Aliases

ResolveModeDeprecated

Specifying depth and stencil resolve modes.
