Abstract: Systems and methods for improving cache efficiency and utilization are disclosed. In one embodiment, a graphics processor includes processing resources to perform graphics operations and a cache controller of a cache coupled to the processing resources. The cache controller is configured to control cache priority by determining whether default settings or an instruction will control cache operations for the cache.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein are generally directed to a local cache structure within a shared function of a 3D pipeline that facilitates efficient caching of resource state. In an example, the cache structure is maintained within a sub-core of a GPU. The local cache structure includes (i) an SC having entries each containing a state of a binded resource, and (ii) a DSAT having entries each containing an index into the SC. The DSAT is tagged by SBTO values representing addresses of entries of a binding table. A request, including information indicative of an SBTO pointing to an entry within the binding table, is received for a state of a particular binded resource being accessed by a shared function of the 3D pipeline. Based on the SBTO and during a single access to the cache structure, a determination is made regarding whether the state of the particular binded resource is present.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a technique to enable access to entries in a surface state or sampler state using 64-bit virtual addresses. One embodiment provides a graphics core that includes memory access circuitry configured to facilitate access to the memory by functional units of the graphics core. The memory access circuitry is configured to receive a message to access an entry in a surface state or a sampler state associated with a parallel processing operation. The message specifies a base address for a surface state entry or sampler state entry. The circuitry can add the base address and the offset to determine a 64-bit virtual address for the entry in the surface state entry or the sampler state and submit a memory access request to the memory to access the entry of the surface state or sampler state.

Abstract: Dynamic routing of texture-load in graphics processing is described. An example of a processor includes one or more processing resources, the one or more processing resources to load a message including a texture load; a texture sampler and a data port; and a message router to route the texture load to a destination, wherein the destination may be either the texture sampler or the data port; wherein the message router includes arbitration circuitry to select the destination for the texture load, the arbitration circuitry to base selection of the destination at least in part on support by the data port for a format of a memory surface for the texture load; and a utilization metric for the data port representing availability of the data port.
