C Specification
Geometry types are specified by VkGeometryTypeKHR, which takes values:
// Provided by VK_KHR_acceleration_structure
typedef enum VkGeometryTypeKHR {
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_TRIANGLES_KHR = 0,
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_AABBS_KHR = 1,
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_INSTANCES_KHR = 2,
// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing_linear_swept_spheres
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_SPHERES_NV = 1000429004,
// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing_linear_swept_spheres
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_LINEAR_SWEPT_SPHERES_NV = 1000429005,
// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_TRIANGLES_NV = VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_TRIANGLES_KHR,
// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_AABBS_NV = VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_AABBS_KHR,
} VkGeometryTypeKHR;
or the equivalent
// Provided by VK_NV_ray_tracing
typedef VkGeometryTypeKHR VkGeometryTypeNV;
