20250231769. Bindless Thread Dispatch Mid (Intel)
BINDLESS THREAD DISPATCH MID-THREAD PREEMPTION ON A GRAPHICS PROCESSOR
Abstract: techniques are provided to enable mid-thread (instruction level) preemption in a graphics processor without requiring software intervention by a graphics driver associated with the graphics processor. hardware based mid-thread preemption is facilitated using the thread dispatch hardware of the graphics processor to trigger execution of a kernel program by the graphics processor that saves the thread state of preempted processing resources and facilitates the subsequent restoration of that thread state to the same or a different set of processing resources.
