Abstract
Embodiments of this application provide a rendering method and apparatus, and the like. The method includes: A processor (which is usually a CPU) modifies a rendering instruction based on a relationship between a first frame buffer and a second frame buffer, so that a GPU renders a rendering job corresponding to the first frame buffer to the second frame buffer based on a new rendering instruction. In this application, render passes of one or more frame buffers are redirected to another frame buffer. In this way, memory occupation in a rendering process of an application program is effectively reduced, bandwidth of the GPU is reduced, and power consumption can be reduced.
