One embodiment provides a graphics processor comprising a system interface and circuitry coupled with the system interface. The circuitry includes an execution resource and a preemption status register. The execution resource is configured to execute an instruction. During execution of the instruction, the execution resource is to receive a request to preempt execution of a thread associated with the instruction and, based on a value stored in the preemption status register, execute at least one additional instruction after receipt of the request to preempt execution of the thread.

Methods and apparatus relating to scalar core integration in a graphics processor. In an example, an apparatus comprises a processor to receive a set of workload instructions for a graphics workload from a host complex, determine a first subset of operations in the set of operations that is suitable for execution by a scalar processor complex of the graphics processing device and a second subset of operations in the set of operations that is suitable for execution by a vector processor complex of the graphics processing device, assign the first subset of operations to the scalar processor complex for execution to generate a first set of outputs, assign the second subset of operations to the vector processor complex for execution to generate a second set of outputs. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Scalar core integration

One embodiment provides a parallel processor comprising a memory interface and a processing array coupled with the memory interface. The processing array is configured to address memory accessed via the memory interface via a virtual address mapping and includes circuitry to resolve a page fault for the virtual address mapping, wherein each of the multiple compute blocks is separately preemptable.

Examples described herein relate to a graphics processing system that includes one or more integrated graphics systems and one or more discrete graphics systems. In some examples, an operating system (OS) or other software supports switching between image display data being provided from either an integrated graphics system or a discrete graphics system by configuring a multiplexer at runtime to output image data to a display. In some examples, a multiplexer is not used and interface supported messages are used to transfer image data from an integrated graphics system to a discrete graphics system and the discrete graphics system generates and outputs image data to a display. In some examples, interface supported messages are used to transfer image data from a discrete graphics system to an integrated graphics system and the integrated graphics system uses an overlay process to generate a composite image for output to a display.
