Abstract
A graphics processing unit (GPU) configured to perform a graphics pipeline may generate operation data based on base operation data representing a base state of a plurality of components and implement the plurality of components to perform the graphics pipeline according to the generated operation data. The GPU may determine a priority of a plurality of instances of state version data based on frequencies of use associated with the plurality of instances of state version data, maintain first state version data having a determined highest priority from among the plurality of instances of state version data, and control second state version data having a determined lower priority than the first state version data to be updated based on a graphics pipeline being performed. The state version data may include code associated with performing the graphics pipeline in each of a plurality of states of the plurality of components.
