Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In general, aspects of this disclosure describe example techniques for efficient storage of data of various data types for graphics processing. In some examples, a processing unit may assign first and second contiguous range of addresses for a first and second data type, respectively. The processing unit may store at least one of graphics data of the first or second data type or addresses of the graphics data of the first or second data type within blocks whose addresses are within the first and second contiguous range of addresses, respectively. The processing unit may store, in cache lines of a cache, the graphics data of the first data type, and the graphics data of the second data type.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method comprising: assigning, with a processing unit, a first contiguous range of addresses for a first data type of a plurality of data types for graphics processing, and assigning a second contiguous range of addresses for a second data type of the plurality of data types for graphics processing, wherein the first and second data types are different data types, and wherein the plurality of data types comprise at least one of texture data, vertex da…
