摘要:
A graphics pipeline [200] includes a texture cache [207] having cache lines [300, 305] that are partitioned into a plurality of subsets. The graphics pipeline also includes one or more compute units [121, 122, 123] that selectively generates a miss request for a first subset of the plurality of subsets of a cache line in the texture cache in response to a cache miss for a memory access request to an address associated with the first subset of the cache line. In some embodiments, the cache lines are partitioned into a first sector and a second sector. The compute units generate miss requests for the first sector, and bypass generating miss requests for the second sector, in response to cache misses for memory access requests received during a request cycle being in the first sector.
