    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for enabling indirect chaining of command buffers are disclosed. A system includes at least first and second processors and a memory. The first processor generates a plurality of command buffers and stores the plurality of command buffers in the memory. The first processor also generates and stores, in the memory, a table with entries specifying addresses of the plurality of command buffers and an order in which to process the command buffers. The first processor conveys an indirect buffer packet to the second processor, where the indirect buffer packet specifies a location and a size of the table in the memory. The second processor retrieves an initial entry from the table, processes a first command buffer at the address specified in the initial entry, and then returns to the table for the next entry upon completing processing of the first command buffer.
