Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, and techniques for performing nested kernel execution within a parallel processing subsystem. In at least one embodiment, a parent thread launches a nested child grid on the parallel processing subsystem, and enables the parent thread to perform a thread synchronization barrier on the child grid for proper execution semantics between the parent thread and the child grid.
