Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate asynchronous execution at a processing unit. The apparatus includes one or more processors to detect independent task passes that may be executed out of order in a pipeline of the processing unit, schedule a first set of processing tasks to be executed at a first set of processing elements at the processing unit and schedule a second set of tasks to be executed at a second set of processing elements, wherein execution of the first set of tasks at the first set of processing elements is to be performed simultaneous and in parallel to execution of the second set of tasks at the second set of processing elements.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a graphics, media, and compute device having a tiled architecture composed of a number of tiles of smaller graphics devices. The work distribution infrastructure for such device enables the distribution of workloads across multiple tiles of the device. Work items can be submitted to any one or more of the multiple tiles, with workloads able to span multiple tiles. Additionally, upon completion of a work item, graphics, media, and/or compute engines within the device can readily acquire new work items for execution with minimal latency.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide away to render edges of an object defined by multiple tessellation triangles. More particularly, systems, apparatuses and methods may provide a way to perform anti-aliasing at the edges of the object based on a coarse pixel rate, where the coarse pixels may be based on a coarse Z value indicate a resolution or granularity of detail of the coarse pixel. The systems, apparatuses and methods may use a shader dispatch engine to dispatch raster rules to a pixel shader to direct the pixel shader to include, in a tile and/or tessellation triangle, one more finer coarse pixels based on a percent of coverage provided by a finer coarse pixel of a tessellation triangle at or along the edge of the object.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that activates a first context on a graphics processor and detects a context switch condition with respect to the first context. Additionally, a second context may be activated, in response to the context switch condition, on the graphics processor while the first context is active on the graphics processor. In one example, activating the second context includes adding a group identifier to a plurality of threads corresponding to the second context and launching the plurality of threads with the group identifier on the graphics processor.

Abstract: The systems, apparatuses and methods may provide a way to adaptively process and aggressively cull geometry data. Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for processing, by a positional only shading pipeline (POSH), geometry data including surface triangles for a digital representation of a scene. More particularly, systems, apparatuses and methods may provide a way to identify surface triangles in one or more exclusion zones and non-exclusion zones, and cull surface triangles surface triangles in one or more exclusion zones.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating dynamic runtime transformation of graphics processing commands for improved graphics performance on computing devices. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting a command stream associated with an application, where the command stream includes dispatches. The method may further include evaluating processing parameters relating to each of the dispatches, where evaluating further includes associating a first plan with one or more of the dispatches to transform the command stream into a transformed command stream. The method may further include associating, based on the first plan, a second plan to the one or more of the dispatches, where the second plan represents the transformed command stream. The method may further include executing the second plan, where execution of the second plan includes processing the transformed command stream in lieu of the command stream.

Abstract: Embodiments are generally directed to GPU mixed primitive topology type processing. An embodiment of an apparatus includes one or more processor cores; and a memory to store data for graphics processing, wherein the one or more processing cores are to generate in the memory a vertex buffer to store vertex data for a mesh to be rendered and an index buffer to index the vertex data stored in the vertex buffer, the index buffer being structured to include index data for multiple primitive topology types. The one or more processor cores are to process the index data for the plurality of primitive topology types from the index buffer and fetch vertex data from the vertex buffer; and are to set up each primitive topology type of the plurality of primitive topology types for processing in a single draw operation.
