Abstract: A graphics processing unit having multiple groups of processor cores for rendering graphics data for allocated tiles and outputting the processed data to regions of a memory resource. Scheduling logic allocates sets of tiles to the groups of processor cores to perform a first render, and at a time when at least one of the groups has not completed processing its allocated sets of one or more tiles as part of the first render, allocates at least one set of tiles for a second render to one of the other groups of processor cores for processing. Progress indication logic indicates progress of the first render, indicating regions of the memory resource for which processing for the first render has been completed. Progress check logic checks the progress indication in response to a request for access to a region of the memory resource as part of the second render and enables access that region of the resource in response to an indication that processing for the first render has been completed for that region.

Abstract: Systems and techniques provide for low-latency, full-frequency noise filtering of images through the use of an image-scaling-based filtering technique, or “multiscale filtering technique”, that can provide filtering for low, medium, and/or high frequencies for one or more components of an image, such that the different resolution scales at each level of the multiscale filtering technique provides a larger receptive field for a denoising process employed at each level than a conventional denoising framework. This multiscale filtering includes receiving an input image to be filtered and then performing a multiscale filtering process in which an input image is, at different resolution scales, denoised, downscaled, upscaled, and fused with a result of a lower resolution scale, to generate a filtered image. This may include temporarily buffering intermediate image data for some of the resolution scales at a memory using direct memory access (DMA) operations.

Abstract: Systems and methods related to priority-based and performance-based selection of a render mode, such as a two-level binning mode, in which to execute workloads with a graphics processing unit (GPU) of a system are provided. A user mode driver (UMD) or kernel mode driver (KMD) executed at a central processing unit (CPU) configures low and medium priority workloads to be executed in a two-level binning mode and selects a binning mode for high priority workloads based on whether performance heuristics indicate that one or more binning conditions or override conditions have been met. High priority workloads are maintained in a high priority queue, while low and medium priority workloads are maintained in a low/medium priority queue, such that execution of low and medium priority workloads at the GPU can be preempted in favor of executing high priority workloads.
