Abstract
To render a batch of primitives, an acceleration unit (AU) first partitions a frame to be rendered into two or more tiles. For each primitive of the batch of primitives, the AU then determines whether the primitive is at least partially visible in each tile of the frame. Based on a primitive being at least partially visible in a tile, the AU stores geometry data of the primitive in the tile in a corresponding per-tile queue allocated to the tile. For each tile and using the geometry data in the per-tile queue allocated to the tile, the AU then performs one or more depth sub-passes to generate depth pre-pass data that is stored in the per-tile queue allocated to the tile. The AU then renders the batch of primitives based on the depth pre-pass data stored in the per-tile queues.
