Abstract:
A GPU may determine, based on a visibility stream, whether to execute instructions stored in an indirect buffer. The instructions include instructions for rendering primitives associated with a bin of a plurality of bins and include one or more secondary operations. The visibility stream indicate if one or more of the primitives associated with the bin will be visible in a finally rendered scene. The GPU may, responsive to determining not to execute the instructions stored in the indirect buffer, execute one or more secondary operations stored in a shadow indirect buffer. The GPU may, responsive to determining to execute the instructions stored in the indirect buffer, execute the instructions for rending the primitives associated with the bin of the plurality of bins and executing the one or more secondary operations stored in the indirect buffer.
