Abstract
A primary processing unit includes queues configured to store commands prior to execution in corresponding pipelines. The primary processing unit also includes a first table configured to store entries indicating dependencies between commands that are to be executed on different ones of a plurality of processing units that include the primary processing unit and one or more secondary processing units. The primary processing unit also includes a scheduler configured to release commands in response to resolution of the dependencies. In some cases, a first one of the secondary processing units schedules the first command for execution in response to resolution of a dependency on a second command executing in a second one of the secondary processing units. The second one of the secondary processing units notifies the primary processing unit in response to completing execution of the second command.
