    Abstract: Aspects presented herein relate to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a graphics processing unit (GPU). The apparatus may detect an existence of a shader termination construct for at least one graphics shader. The apparatus may also perform a first static analysis for an identification of a set of suitable candidates for a control flow delinearization associated with the shader termination construct. Further, the apparatus may perform a second static analysis for a cost modeling procedure for the set of suitable candidates for the control flow delinearization. The apparatus may also select, based on the cost modeling procedure, a candidate of the set of suitable candidates for the control flow delinearization. The apparatus may also provide an indication of the selected candidate of the set of suitable candidates for the control flow delinearization.
