  • Apparatus and method of executing thread groups
    Patent number: 10761885
    Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for executing thread groups. The apparatus comprises scheduling circuitry for selecting for execution a first thread group from a plurality of thread groups, and thread processing circuitry that is responsive to the scheduling circuitry to execute active threads of the first thread group in dependence on a common program counter shared between the active threads. In response to an exit event occurring for the first thread group, the thread processing circuitry determines whether a program counter check condition is present, and this can be used to trigger program counter checking circuitry to perform a program counter check operation to update the common program counter and an active thread indication for the first thread group.
