ABSTRACT:
Apparatus, system, and method for delivering data to multiple memory clients are described. In one embodiment, a graphics processing apparatus includes an output pipeline including a set of memory clients. The graphics processing apparatus also includes a memory controller connected to the output pipeline. The memory controller is configured to retrieve data requested by respective ones of the set of memory clients from a memory. The graphics processing apparatus further includes a buffering module connected between the memory controller and the output pipeline. The buffering module includes a unitary buffer and a buffer controller connected to the unitary buffer. The buffer controller is configured to coordinate storage of the data in the unitary buffer, and the buffer controller is configured to coordinate delivery of the data from the unitary buffer to respective ones of the set of memory clients.
