A system and method for performing tessellation in a single pass through a graphics processor divides the processing resources within the graphics processor into sets for performing different tessellation operations. Vertex data and tessellation parameters are routed directly from one processing resource to another instead of being stored in memory. Therefore, a surface patch description is provided to the graphics processor and tessellation is completed in a single uninterrupted pass through the graphics processor without storing intermediate data in memory. |
