Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a GPU. The apparatus may generate a table including a plurality of entries to store data associated with at least one of a constant value or an immediate value. The apparatus may also process, upon generating the table, first data including at least one of a constant value or an immediate value. Further, the apparatus may store, in the generated table, at least one of the constant value or the immediate value of the first data. The apparatus may also transmit, upon storing at least one of the constant value or the immediate value in the table, the table including the stored at least one of the constant value or the immediate value of the first data.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. In some aspects, the apparatus can determine a plurality of sub-primitives corresponding to one or more primitives in an image. The apparatus can also determine visibility information for each of the sub-primitives. The visibility information can include information regarding whether the sub-primitive is visible. Further, the apparatus can identify one or more of the sub-primitives as visible based on the visibility information. The apparatus can also determine a sub-primitive visibility stream including the sub-primitives identified as visible. Additionally, the apparatus can render at least one of the sub-primitives identified as visible in the sub-primitive visibility stream. The apparatus can also identify at least one of the sub-primitives as not visible based on the determined visibility information. Moreover, the apparatus can determine to skip rendering the at least one of the sub-primitives identified as not visible.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a device configured to generate a primitive visibility stream that indicates whether respective primitives of a set of primitives are visible when rendered and to generate, based on the primitive visibility stream, a draw call visibility stream that indicates whether respective draw calls for rendering the set of primitives include instructions for rendering visible primitives of the set of primitives. Based on the draw call visibility stream indicating that a respective draw call does not include instructions for rendering visible primitives, the device is further configured to drop the respective draw call. Based on the draw call visibility stream indicating that the respective draw call includes instructions for rendering visible primitives, the device is further configured to execute the respective draw call.

Abstract: In an example, a method for rendering graphics data includes rendering pixels of a first bin of a plurality of bins, wherein the pixels of the first bin are associated with a first portion of an image, and rendering, to the first bin, one or more pixels that are located outside the first portion of the image and associated with a second, different bin of the plurality of bins. The method also includes rendering the one or more pixels associated with the second bin to the second bin, such that the one or more pixels are rendered to both the first bin and the second bin.
