Apparatus and method for resilient interface for updating a graphics processor. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises a graphics processor; and a configuration memory of the graphics processor to be subdivided into a plurality of configuration regions associated with a corresponding plurality of graphics pipeline stages and/or functional units, wherein a host processor executing a graphics driver is to submit a graphics processor configuration update to a command buffer, the graphics processor configuration update including at least one logical memory address associated with a logical view of the configuration memory and configuration data to be used to modify at least one configuration region associated with the at least one logical memory address, and wherein the logical memory address is to be used to identify a corresponding physical memory address for at least one configuration region corresponding to at least one of the graphics pipeline stages and/or functional units, the at least one configuration region to be responsively updated.
