Title: Tag buffer for graphics processing systems
Inventor: Robert Brigg
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2018-12-21
Abstract: A tag buffer (1506) implementing rasterization in a tile-based graphics processor having a rendering space sub-divided into tiles to which primitives can be associated, comprises a buffer storing an identifier for each sample position of a tile that identifies a visible primitive at that position, and a look-up table (LUT) storing an entry for each transformed primitive block that indicates whether the buffer received a primitive fragment associated with that block. The buffer receives fragments that survived a depth test, each received fragment being associated with a transformed primitive block and a tile sample position, and for each received fragment, updates the buffer to indicate that the received primitive is the visible primitive at the associated position. Further, the LUT is updated to indicate which blocks the received fragments are associated with. Buffer contents are flushed when condition(s) are met (e.g. full cache/memory), and following the flush, the flushed contents of the buffer are compared to the LUT to identify blocks that did not survive the tag buffer stage. Also disclosed is determining which cache subdivision stores data, as well as a counter being maintained for each block stored in the cache to use to evict blocks.
