Concurrent compute context

Abstract

Embodiments described herein provide a system of concurrent compute queues that enable the scheduling of a large number of compute contexts simultaneously on graphics processor hardware. One embodiment provides an apparatus comprising a system interface and a general-purpose graphics processor coupled with the system interface. The general-purpose graphics processor comprises a plurality of graphics processor hardware resources configured to be partitioned into a plurality of isolated partitions, each of the plurality of isolated partitions including a first command streamer, a second command streamer, and circuitry configured to schedule general-purpose graphics compute workloads submitted to a first plurality of command queues associated with the first command streamer and a second plurality of command queues associated with the second command streamer.
