Abstract

A technique is disclosed for reducing divergence among a plurality of executing wavefronts. A first wavefront requests that work-items of the first wavefront be sorted based on a sort parameter together with work-items of one or more other wavefronts, and the first wavefront is requested to pause execution. A query is issued for a status of the request, and a query result is provided to the first wavefront. Based on the query result, the first wavefront determines a subsequent action.
