Abstract
Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for performing instructions to access a compressed graphic list. In one example, a processor includes fetch and decode circuitry to fetch and decode the single instruction to access the compressed graphic list, and execution circuitry to execute the decoded single instruction to cause access to the compressed graphic list by: receiving, from a load store queue, at a first op-engine associated with a first data location, an indirection request, computing, via the first op-engine, a second data location associated with a second op-engine, computing, via the second op-engine, a third data location associated with a third op-engine responsive to the indirection request, and providing, via the third op-engine, a data response to the load store queue responsive to receiving data from the third data location.
