摘要： Many computing devices may now include two or more graphics subsystems. The multiple graphics subsystems may have different abilities and may, for example, consume differing amounts of electrical power, with one subsystem consuming more average power than the others. The higher power consuming graphics subsystem may be coupled to the device and used instead of, or in addition to, the lower power consuming graphics subsystem, resulting in higher performance or additional capabilities, but increased overall power consumption. By transitioning from the use of the higher power consuming graphics subsystem to the lower power consuming graphics subsystem, while placing the higher power consuming graphics subsystem in a lower power consumption mode, overall power consumption is reduced. A processor executes application software and driver software. The driver software includes first and second driver components for respectively controlling operation of the first and second graphics subsystems. A further proxy driver component routes calls (e.g. API/DDI calls) to one of said first and second driver components, in dependence on which of the first and second graphics system is in use.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided, as an aspect of a combined CPU/ APD architecture system, for discovering and reporting properties of devices and system topology that are relevant to efficiently scheduling and distributing computational tasks to the various computational resources of a combined CPU/ APD architecture system. The combined CPU/ APD architecture unifies CPUs and APDs in a flexible computing environment. In some embodiments, the combined CPU/ APD architecture capabilities are implemented in a single integrated circuit, elements of which can include one or more CPU cores and one or more APD cores. The combined CPU/APD architecture creates a foundation upon which existing and new programming frameworks, languages, and tools can be constructed.

摘要： Method, system, and apparatus provides for the processing of video and/or graphics data using a combination of first graphics processing circuitry and second graphics processing circuitry without losing state information while transferring the processing between the first and second graphics processing circuitry. The video and/or graphics data to be processed may be, for example, supplied by an application running on a processor such as host processor. In one example, an apparatus includes at least one GPU that includes a plurality of single instruction multiple data (SEVID) execution units. The GPU is operative to execute a native function code module. The apparatus also includes at least a second GPU that includes a plurality of SEVID execution units having a same programming model as the plurality of SEVID execution units on the first GPU. Furthermore, the first and second GPUs are operative to execute the same native function code module. The native code function module causes the first GPU to provide state information for the at least second GPU in response to a notification from a first processor, such as a host processor, that a transition from a current operational mode to a desired operational mode is desired (e.g., one GPU is stopped and the other GPU is started). The second GPU is operative to obtain the state information provided by the first GPU and use the state information via the same native function code module to continue processing where the first GPU left off. The first processor is operatively coupled to the at least first and at least second GPUs.

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product are disclosed for providing improved access to accelerated processing device compute resources to user mode applications. The functionality disclosed allows user mode applications to provide commands to an accelerated processing device without the need for kernel mode transitions in order to access a unified ring buffer. Instead, applications are each provided with their own buffers, which the accelerated processing device hardware can access to process commands. With full operating system support, user mode applications are able to utilize the accelerated processing device in much the same way as a CPU.
