Abstract
In a graphics processing system, an application executing on a host processor can request graphics processing operations that are to be performed by only subsets of the set of stages of a graphics processing pipeline implemented by a graphics processor. In response to such a request, the driver for the graphics processor causes the graphics processing operation that is to be performed using only a subset of the set of stages of the graphics processing pipeline to be performed. The driver can cause the graphics processing operation that is to be performed by the subset of stages of the graphics processing pipeline to be performed by the graphics processor, or on the host processor.
