Abstract: A system includes a compression engine that stores the compression format information embedded in the compressed data. The compression format information can be included in a header that includes compression control surface (CCS) information. The system includes a shared memory to store compressed data for multiple hardware pipelines, where blocks of the compressed data have a common memory footprint and the compression header. The compression engine can compress data to store in the shared memory including generation of the header. The compression engine can decompress data read from the shared memory, including identification of the compression format from the header.

Abstract: Compressed verbatim copy can enable more efficient copying of compressed data. In one example, a compressed verbatim copy method involves receiving a command to copy compressed data from a source address of the memory device to a destination address. In response to the receipt of the command, the method involves copying the compressed data in a compressed format from the source address to the destination address without first decompressing the data. A second source address and a second destination address of metadata for the compressed data is determined, and the metadata is copied from the second source address to the second destination address.

Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a system that after decoding of video by the first device, provides a memory address of decoded video in the memory device to a second driver for a second device and perform a second device driver that causes the second device to access the decoded video directly from a translation of the memory address of the memory device, wherein the second device is to access the decoded video with memory properties of the decoded video and decompression information of the decoded video. In some examples, the first device comprises one or more of: a graphics processing unit integrated with a central processing unit (CPU), a discrete graphics processing unit, or a video decoder accelerator. In some examples, the second device comprises one or more of: a graphics processing unit integrated with a central processing unit (CPU) or a discrete graphics processing unit. In some examples, the memory properties of the decoded video comprise swizzle information.
