Lossless compression for multisample render targets alongside fragment compression
Described herein is a data processing system comprising a memory device to store a multisample render target and a general-purpose graphics processor comprising a multisample antialiasing compressor and a multisample render cache. The multisample render target can store color data for a set of sample locations of each pixel in a set of pixels. The multisample antialiasing compressor can apply multisample antialiasing compression to color data generated for the set of sample locations of a first pixel in the set of pixels. The multisample render cache can store color data generated for the set of sample locations of the first pixel in the set of pixels. Color data evicted from the multisample render cache is stored to the multisample render target.
