Abstract
A texture pipe of a graphics processing unit (GPU) may receive a texture data. The texture pipe may perform a block-based operation on the texture data, wherein the texture data comprises one or more blocks of texels. Shader processors of the GPU may process graphics data concurrently with the texture pipe performing the block-based operation. The texture pipe may output a result of performing the block-based operation on the one or more texture data.
