Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer readable media to perform out-of-order command scheduling for a graphics processor are described. A graphics driver receives commands committed to a graphics processor for execution. The graphics driver queues a first command to a first graphics driver virtual channel that submits commands to the graphics processor for execution. The first command is associated with a first set of resources. The graphics driver determines whether a second set of resources associated with the second command depends on the first set of resources. The graphics driver queues the second command to the first graphics driver virtual channel based on a determination that the second set of resources depends on the first set of resources. The graphics driver queues the second command to a second virtual channel based on a determination that the second set of resources does not depend on the first set of resources.
