System for implementing a graphic address remapping table as a virtual register file in system memory

摘要

A system for implementing a graphics address remapping table as a virtual register in system memory. The remapping table includes virtual registers that each store a target index that references a block of the system memory that stores graphics data using an indirect addressing scheme that enables the individual virtual registers of the remapping table to be accessed in response to a transaction request. Accessing a selected virtual register indirectly requested by the transaction request enables the access to the graphics data pointed to by the selected virtual register.
