Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for abstracting tasks in virtual memory identifier (VMID) containers are disclosed. A processor coupled to a memory executes a plurality of concurrent tasks including a first task. Responsive to detecting one or more instructions of the first task which correspond to a first operation, the processor retrieves a first identifier (ID) which is used to uniquely identify the first task, wherein the first ID is transparent to the first task. Then, the processor maps the first ID to a second ID and/or a third ID. The processor completes the first operation by using the second ID and/or the third ID to identify the first task to at least a first data structure. In one implementation, the first operation is a memory access operation and the first data structure is a set of page tables. Also, in one implementation, the second ID identifies a first application of the first task and the third ID identifies a first operating system (OS) of the first task.

Abstract: A method of save-restore operations includes monitoring, by a power controller of a parallel processor (such as a graphics processing unit), of a register bus for one or more register write signals. The power controller determines that a register write signal is addressed to a state register that is designated to be saved prior to changing a power state of the parallel processor from a first state to a second state having a lower level of energy usage. The power controller instructs a copy of data corresponding to the state register to be written to a local memory module of the parallel processor. Subsequently, the parallel processor receives a power state change signal and writes state register data saved at the local memory module to an off-chip memory prior to changing the power state of the parallel processor.

Abstract: A graphics pipeline includes a cache having cache lines that are configured to store data used to process frames in a graphics pipeline. The graphics pipeline is implemented using a processor that processes frames for the graphics pipeline using data stored in the cache. The processor processes a first frame and writes back a dirty cache line from the cache to a memory concurrently with processing of the first frame. The dirty cache line is retained in the cache and marked as clean subsequent to being written back to the memory. In some cases, the processor generates a hint that indicates a priority for writing back the dirty cache line based on a read command occupancy at a system memory controller.

Abstract: A processor supports secure memory access in a virtualized computing environment by employing requestor identifiers at bus devices (such as a graphics processing unit) to identify the virtual machine associated with each memory access request. The virtualized computing environment uses the requestor identifiers to control access to different regions of system memory, ensuring that each VM accesses only those regions of memory that the VM is allowed to access. The virtualized computing environment thereby supports efficient memory access by the bus devices while ensuring that the different regions of memory are protected from unauthorized access.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for compressing and decompressing a stream of indices associated with graphics primitives. A group of delta values is determined based on a group of indices of the stream of indices. The group of delta values is compared to delta values in a lookup table. The group of indices is compressed based on an entry in the lookup table if the group of delta values matches all delta values in the entry, otherwise, the group of indices is compressed based on variable-length encoding.
