v1.138

HIGHLIGHTS:

• improved memory allocation API (more friendly for render graph based systems)

BREAKING CHANGES:

• GetAccelerationStructureMemoryInfo renamed to GetAccelerationStructureMemoryDesc
• GetBufferMemoryInfo(const Buffer& buffer, ...) changed to GetBufferMemoryDesc(const Device& device, const BufferDesc& bufferDesc, ...)
• GetTextureMemoryInfo(const Texture& texture, ...) changed to GetTextureMemoryDesc(const Device& device, const TextureDesc& textureDesc, ...)
• no-brain migration: GetXxxMemoryInfo(resource, ...) => GetXxxMemoryDesc(device, NRI.GetXxxDesc(resource), ...)

DETAILS:

• NRI: GetXxxMemoryInfo renamed to GetXxxMemoryDesc
• NRI: use BufferDesc and TextureDesc to get MemoryDesc, avoiding beforehand resource creation
• NRI: exposed DeviceDesc::memoryTier, which provides a hint about which resource categories can be put in one memory (valid for D3D12, just a hint for VK)
• VK: old-school vkGetXxxMemoryRequirements2 replaced with modern vkGetDeviceXxxMemoryRequirements from VK_KHR_maintenance4
