Techniques for improving rendering efficiency

摘要

Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for causing the storage of a color data value of a clear color to be deferred or entirely avoided as color data values of primitives of an image are stored. An apparatus includes a processor element; and a logic to store color data values of a block of pixels of the image in a first portion of a cache line, store an indication of the first portion as written and of a second portion of the cache line as not in a per-portion table, evict contents of the first and second portions, and store the contents of the first portion in an image data and store a color data value of a clear color in place of the contents of the second portion in the image data in response to the indications stored in the per-portion table. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
