Abstract

Techniques are described for using a texture unit to perform operations of a shader processor. Some operations of a shader processor are repeatedly executed until a condition is satisfied, and in each execution iteration, the shader processor accesses the texture unit. Techniques are described for the texture unit to perform such operations until the condition is satisfied.
