Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing, e.g., a GPU. The apparatus may receive an image including a plurality of pixels associated with one or more workgroups and one or more pixel tiles, each of the workgroups and the pixel tiles including one or more pixels of the plurality of pixels. The apparatus may determine whether the one or more workgroups are misaligned with the one or more pixel tiles. The apparatus may determine a conversion order of the one or more workgroups when the one or more workgroups are misaligned with the one or more pixel tiles, the conversion order corresponding to a common multiple of one of the one or more workgroups and one of the one or more pixel tiles. The apparatus may convert each of the one or more workgroups based on the conversion order of the one or more workgroups.

Abstract: A sliced graphics processing unit (GPU) architecture in processor-based devices is disclosed. In some aspects, a GPU based on a sliced GPU architecture includes multiple hardware slices. The GPU further includes a command processor (CP) circuit and an unslice primitive controller (PC_US). Upon receiving a graphics instruction from a central processing unit (CPU), the CP circuit determines a graphics workload, and transmits the graphics workload to the PC_US. The PC_US then partitions the graphics workload into multiple subbatches and distributes each subbatch to a PC_S of a hardware slice for processing.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. For example, disclosed techniques facilitate improving bindless state processing at a graphics processor. Aspects of the present disclosure can receive, at a graphics processor, a shader program including a preamble section and a main instructions section. Aspects of the present disclosure can also execute, with a scalar processor dedicated to processing preamble sections, instructions of the preamble section to implement a bindless mechanism for loading constant data associated with the shader program. Additionally, aspects of the present disclosure can distribute the main instructions section and the constant data to a streaming processor for executing the shader program.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a GPU. The apparatus may receive a plurality of workloads based on a workload order, each of the plurality of workloads being received in the workload order including at least a first workload and a second workload. The apparatus may also allocate one or more workloads of the plurality of workloads to one or more wave slots. Additionally, the apparatus may execute the one or more allocated workloads at the one or more wave slots, such that at least the first workload is executed at the first wave slot and the second workload is executed at the second wave slot. The apparatus may also allocate at least one other workload of the plurality of workloads to at least one previously-allocated wave slot of the one or more wave slots.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for an elimination cache. A graphics processor may obtain an indication of at least one state update from at least one CP associated with a graphics processor, where the at least one state update corresponds to one or more states in a set of states associated with the graphics processor. The graphics processor may determine whether the one or more states are stored in a cache associated with the graphics processor. The graphics processor may discard the at least one state update based on a determination that the one or more states are stored in the cache or update the cache based on a determination that the one or more states are not stored in the cache.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for image processing are described. A device may determine, based on a test operation, to terminate a first wave associated with a first slot of a set of slots. The device may update a terminated wave bit associated with the first slot based on the determination to terminate the first wave. In some aspects, the device may update a number of invocations field associated with the first wave based on the determination to terminate the first wave. The device may release the first slot based on updating the terminated wave bit and the number of invocations field. In some examples, the device may output the number of invocations field to a rendering backend of the device based on the terminated wave bit.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for runtime optimization of the shader execution flow. A graphics processor may obtain instruction execution data associated with a graphics workload, the instruction execution data including graphics data for a set of shader operations. The graphics processor may configure, at a first iteration, at least one predication value based on the instruction execution data including the graphics data for the set of shader operations. The graphics processor may adjust, at a second iteration, an execution flow of the graphics workload based on the configured at least one predication value, the execution flow of the graphics workload including the set of shader operations. The graphics processor may execute or refrain from executing, at the second iteration, each of the set of shader operations based on the adjusted execution flow of the graphics workload.
