    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for reducing storage access bandwidth requirements in retrieving a texture image from a storage for applying textures to rendered objects by rendering the texture image itself into the storage to reduce the storage space in which the texture image is stored and to arrange portions of the texture image to be retrieved with fewer accesses. A device to render images includes a processor component; a color analyzer to determine a clear color of a texture image stored as source texture data; and a rendering routine to render the texture image into a storage as reduced texture data, the rendering routine to selectively store in the reduced texture data pixel color values retrieved from the source texture data that are associated with pixels of the texture image not colored with the clear color. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for handling portrait mode oriented display surfaces without requiring expensive hardware in the display sub-system are disclosed. For example, an apparatus is disclosed such that the rendering of graphics data to the portrait mode display surfaces is redirected at rendering time such that there is no need for adding complicated hardware in the display part of the graphics adapter in order to handle conventional displays—all of which have no circuitry to deal with data natively stored in a portrait mode surface. Additionally, an apparatus to handle direct surface access of a surface through a surface lock which has already been rotated is already described. This can either be done by copying of surface data or by an optimized proposed apparatus which eliminates this copy. Other implementations are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for rasterizing a line, including determining a start point and initial line step count of the line, determining a line stipple pattern position and repeat count at each point of the line based on the start point of the line and initial line step count and rasterizing the line in an order independent manner. In some embodiments, the line may be rasterized backwards. An approximate reciprocal value for the repeat count may be used.

    Abstract: A technique for detecting texture sharing between multiple contexts having unique ID's includes obtaining a texture usage mask of a subject texture and a context ID of a subject context. A first logic operation with the texture usage mask of the subject texture and the context ID of the subject context is performed to produce a resultant value. The subject texture is determined not to be shared by another context with the subject context upon the resultant value being equal to a first predetermined value. The subject texture is determined to be shared by another context with the subject context upon the resultant value being equal to a second predetermined value which is different from the first predetermined value. The texture usage mask of a subject texture may be revised prior to the subject texture being used by another context by performing a second logic operation with the texture usage mask and a context ID of another context to produce a resultant new texture usage mask for the subject texture. The texture usage mask of a subject texture may be revised upon the subject texture no longer being used by a particular context by performing a third logic operation with the texture usage mask and a context ID of the particular context to produce a resultant new texture usage mask for the subject texture.

    Abstract: Lighting parameters are received as floating-point numbers from a software application via an application programming interface (API). The floating-point numbers are converted to a fixed-point representation having a preselected number of bits. The number of bits is selected in accordance with a predetermined number of bits required by a frame buffer, which thus establishes the number of color values supported by the graphics display system. In order to preserve accuracy to within the number of bits in each value in the frame buffer, the representation in the fixed-point engine includes additional bits relative to the number of bits in the color values sent to the frame buffer. Floating-point values received via the graphics API are converted to fixed-point representations by first prescaling the floating-point values. The fixed-point operations generate a lighting signal value in accordance with a lighting model, and the number of bits therein is reduced to correspond to the number of bits in each data value required by the frame buffer, and the lighting data values are sent as color values to the frame buffer.
