    • 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.

    • 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.
    • 现在许多计算设备可能包括两个或更多图形子系统。 多个图形子系统可以具有不同的能力,并且例如可以消耗不同数量的电力,其中一个子系统消耗比其他子系统更多的平均功率。 较高功耗的图形子系统可以耦合到该设备并且代替或者除了较低功耗的图形子系统之外使用,从而导致更高的性能或附加能力,但是增加了整体功耗。 通过从使用较高功耗的图形子系统转换到较低功耗的图形子系统,将较高功耗的图形子系统置于较低的功耗模式,可降低整体功耗。 处理器执行应用软件和驱动程序软件。 驱动器软件包括用于分别控制第一和第二图形子系统的操作的第一和第二驱动器组件。 另一个代理驱动程序组件根据第一和第二图形系统中的哪一个正在使用将呼叫(例如API / DDI调用)路由到所述第一和第二驱动程序组件之一。
