More Information
Summary:Providing content based cache for graphic resource management is disclosed herein. In some aspects, a portion of a shadow copy of graphics resources is updated from an original copy of the graphics resources when a requested resource is not current. The shadow copy may be dedicated to a graphics processing unit (GPU) while the original copy may be maintained by a central processing unit (CPU). In further aspects, the requested graphics resource in the shadow copy may be compared to a corresponding graphics resource in the original copy when the GPU requests the graphics resource. The comparison may be performed by comparing hashes of each graphics resource and/or by comparing at least a portion of the graphics resources.
