Methods for drawing content to a display are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving input indicating content to be drawn to a display, and providing a request to prepare the content for display to a first thread. The method also includes receiving, in response to the provided request, instructions for drawing the content to the display, and providing the instructions for drawing the content to the display to a second thread. The method further includes executing, by the second thread, the instructions for drawing the content to the display. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Multi-threaded rasterisation

A relational model may be used to encode primitives for each of a plurality of threads in a multi-core processor. The primitives may include tasks and parameters, such as buffers. Implicitly created tasks, like set render target, may be visualized by associating those implicitly created tasks with actual coded tasks.

Relational modeling for performance analysis of multi-core processors using virtual tasks

A relational model may be used to encode primitives for each of a plurality of threads in a multi-core processor. The primitives may include tasks and parameters, such as buffers. The relationships may be linked to particular tasks. The tasks with the coding, which indicates the relationships, may then be used upon user selection to display a visualization of the functional relationships between tasks.

Relational modeling for performance analysis of multi-core processors

A technique includes providing first objects that are associated with an application session and in a processor-based system, identifying second objects in another application session corresponding to the first objects based at least in part on a comparison of the second objects to matching rules associated with the first objects.

Performance analysis of software executing in different sessions

Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for rendering application content are disclosed. In one embodiment a content receiver receives application content for rendering on a display unit of a computing device. A first processing unit renders the application content onto a first frame of a plurality of frames, and a second processing unit sequentially renders the plurality of frames onto the display unit. A counter counts of a number of outstanding frames as provided by the first processing unit to the second processing unit relative to corresponding acknowledgement messages indicating that one of the outstanding frames has been rendered onto the display unit. If the count is less than a threshold, the first processing unit renders the application content onto the first frame, otherwise the first processing unit waits to render the application content until the count is less than the threshold.

Multiprocess GPU rendering model

A technique includes providing data indicative of a counted value acquired by a hardware counter of a processing core during a time segment in which a plurality of tasks are active on the core and, in a processor-based machine, determining a likelihood that the counted value is attributable to a given task of the tasks during the time segment and attributing a portion of the counted value to the given task based at least in part on the determined likelihood.
