Abstract: Described herein is a graphics processor configured to perform asynchronous input dependency resolution among a group of interdependent workloads. The graphics processor can dynamically resolve input dependencies among the workloads according to a dependency relationship defined for the workloads. Dependency resolution be performed via a deferred submission mode which resolves input dependencies prior to thread dispatch to the processing resources or via immediate submission mode which resolves input dependencies at the processing resources.

Abstract: A system and methods embodying some aspects of the present embodiments for efficient load balancing using predication flags are provided. The load balancing system includes a first processing unit, a second processing unit, and a shared queue. The first processing unit is in communication with a first queue. The second processing unit is in communication with a second queue. The first and second queues are each configured to hold a packet. The shared queue is configured to maintain a work assignment, wherein the work assignment is to be processed by either the first or second processing unit.

Abstract: The described embodiments include a networking subsystem in a second computing device that is configured to receive a task message from a first computing device. Based on the task message, the networking subsystem updates an entry in a task queue with task information from the task message. A processing subsystem in the second computing device subsequently retrieves the task information from the task queue and performs the corresponding task. In these embodiments, the networking subsystem processes the task message (e.g., stores the task information in the task queue) without causing the processing subsystem to perform operations for processing the task message.

Abstract: A system and methods embodying some aspects of the present embodiments for maintaining compact in-order queues are provided. The queue management method includes requesting a work pointer from a primary queue, wherein the work pointer points to a work assignment comprising an indirect queue and a dependency list; responsive to the dependency list not being cleared, invalidating the work pointer in the primary queue and adding a new pointer to the end of the primary queue, the new pointer configured to point to the work assignment; and responsive to the dependency list being clear, removing the work pointer from the primary queue and performing work in the indirect queue.
