Abstract:
Embodiments described herein provide techniques enable a graphics processor to continue processing operations during the reset of a compute unit that has experienced a hardware fault. Threads and associated context state for a faulted compute unit can be migrated to another compute unit of the graphics processor and the faulting compute unit can be reset while processing operations continue.
