摘要： Z testing during computer graphics rendering is performed in a manner so as to optimize rendering. The status of a pixel as non-promotable may be tracked using a pixel status array (PSA). Each PSA row may contain bits which correspond to the non-promotable status of pixels. Each row may include five pixels, the first four of which represent the pixels in a subspan. If the row corresponds to a valid subspan, a determination may be made as to whether any pixel in the subspan is represented by a one, indicating that the pixel is non-promotable. This row corresponds to a previous subspan that has been sent down rendering pipeline. If a one is present, then the current subspan may be stalled until the pixels of the previous subspan has gone through color calculation. If, in the row that has just been read, no pixels are represented by a one, then a determination may be made as to whether any pixels in the current subspan are non-promotable. If so, then the corresponding bit in the current PSA row may be set to one. Otherwise, the Z test may be performed on each pixel of the current subspan.
摘要翻译： 在计算机图形渲染期间的Z测试以优化渲染的方式执行。 可以使用像素状态阵列（PSA）跟踪不可升级的像素的状态。 每个PSA行可以包含对应于像素的不可升级状态的位。 每行可以包括五个像素，其中前四个表示子跨距中的像素。 如果该行对应于有效的子跨度，则可以确定子跨越中的任何像素是否由一个表示，表示该像素是不可升级的。 此行对应于已向下渲染管道发送的先前子跨。 如果存在一个，那么当前的子跨越可能会停顿，直到前一个子跨越的像素经过颜色计算。 如果在刚刚读取的行中没有像素由一个像素表示，则可以确定当前子跨距中的任何像素是否不可升级。 如果是，则当前PSA行中的相应位可以被设置为1。 否则，可以对当前子跨的每个像素执行Z测试。

摘要： A context-free (stateless) dataport may allow multiple processors to perform read and write operations on a shared memory. The operations may include, for example, structured data operations such as image and video operations. The dataport may perform addressing computations associated with block memory operations. Therefore, the dataport may be able, for example, to relieve the processors that it serves from this duty. The dataport may be accessed using a message interface that may be implemented in a standard and generalized manner and that may therefore be easily transportable between different types of processors.

摘要： According to some embodiments, a conditional Single Instruction, Multiple Data instruction is provided. For example, a first conditional instruction may be received at an n-channel SIMD execution engine. The first conditional instruction may be evaluated based on multiple channels of associated data, and the result of the evaluation may be stored in an n-bit conditional mask register. A second conditional instruction may then be received at the execution engine and the result may be copied from the conditional mask register to an n-bit wide, m-entry deep conditional stack.

摘要： Multiple parallel passive threads of instructions coordinate access to shared resources using “active” semaphores. The semaphores are referred to as active because the semaphores send messages to execution and/or control circuitry to cause the state of a thread to change. A thread can be placed in an inactive state by a thread scheduler in response to an unresolved dependency, which can be indicated by a semaphore. A thread state variable corresponding to the dependency is used to indicate that the thread is in inactive mode. When the dependency is resolved a message is passed to control circuitry causing the dependency variable to be cleared. In response to the cleared dependency variable the thread is placed in an active state. Execution can proceed on the threads in the active state.

摘要： In embodiments described herein, graphics hardware is described to reduce the number of wasted clock cycles expended during rasterization and performs coverage test iteration in a cache coherent manner. An exemplary embodiment comprises block selection logic to select an initial block of pixels associated with edges of a primitive and edge determination logic to analyze the initial block of pixels to determine a set of fully covered quadrants of the initial block of pixels and analyze a block of pixels adjacent to the initial block of pixels to determine whether the block of adjacent pixels is void.

摘要： Methods, apparatus and computer readable medium are described that compress and/or decompress a digital image in a lossless or a lossy manner. In some embodiments, a display controller may compress a digital image by generating a symbol for each pel of the digital image. In particular, the symbol may represent a pel via a match vector and a channel error vector. The match vector may indicate which quantized channels of the pel matched quantized channels of a previous pel. Further, the channel error vector may comprise a lossless or lossy channel for each quantized channel of the pel that did not match a corresponding quantized channel of the previous pel. The channel error may also comprise a lossless or lossy channel error for each quantized channel of the pel that matched a corresponding quantized channel of the previous pel.

摘要： Multiple parallel passive threads of instructions coordinate access to shared resources using “active” and “proactive” semaphores. The active semaphores send messages to execution and/or control circuitry to cause the state of a thread to change. A thread can be placed in an inactive state by a thread scheduler in response to an unresolved dependency, which can be indicated by a semaphore. A thread state variable corresponding to the dependency is used to indicate that the thread is in inactive mode. When the dependency is resolved a message is passed to control circuitry causing the dependency variable to be cleared. In response to the cleared dependency variable the thread is placed in an active state. Execution can proceed on the threads in the active state. A proactive semaphore operates in a similar manner except that the semaphore is configured by the thread dispatcher before or after the thread is dispatched to the execution circuitry for execution.
