Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a technique to enable access to entries in a surface state or sampler state using 64-bit virtual addresses. One embodiment provides a graphics core that includes memory access circuitry configured to facilitate access to the memory by functional units of the graphics core. The memory access circuitry is configured to receive a message to access an entry in a surface state or a sampler state associated with a parallel processing operation. The message specifies a base address for a surface state entry or sampler state entry. The circuitry can add the base address and the offset to determine a 64-bit virtual address for the entry in the surface state entry or the sampler state and submit a memory access request to the memory to access the entry of the surface state or sampler state.
