Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. Aspects of the present disclosure can determine a portion of a display area, where the portion of the display area is determined based on display content of the display area. Further, aspects of the present disclosure can communicate display information corresponding to the determined portion of the display area. Additionally, aspects of the present disclosure can update the display information corresponding to the determined portion of the display area. Aspects of the present disclosure can also communicate the updated display information corresponding to the determined portion of the display area. Aspects of the present disclosure can also render at least some display content of the display area corresponding to the determined portion of the display area. In some aspects, the updated display information can be based on the rendered display content of the display area.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. In some aspects, multiple processing units can be in a graphics processing pipeline of a GPU. The apparatus can also group the multiple processing units into one or more processing unit clusters. In some aspects, each of the one or more processing unit clusters can correspond to one or more context registers. Additionally, the apparatus can determine one or more context states of the one or more context registers in each of the one or more processing unit clusters. Also, the apparatus can implement one or more execution counters corresponding to at least one of the one or more processing unit clusters in the graphics processing pipeline, where each of the one or more execution counters includes an execution value.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium may be configured to perform a binning pass for a first frame. The apparatus may be configured to perform a rendering pass for the first frame in parallel with the binning pass. The apparatus may be configured to enhance efficiency in performing a binning pass and a rendering pass for tile-based rendering, such that the binning pass and rendering pass are performed concurrently. The apparatus may be configured to perform the binning pass using a first hardware pipeline, and may be configured to perform the rendering pass using a second hardware pipeline.
