Detailed Description

In order that the above-recited objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to the appended drawings and appended detailed description.

In practical applications, the core of the graphics card is a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit, graphics processor), which is also called a display core, a vision processor, and a display chip, and is a microprocessor that is specially used for image operation on electronic devices such as a personal computer, a workstation, a game machine, and a mobile device (such as a tablet computer and a smart phone).

A Memory (Memory) is a core component in a computer system, and is also called an internal Memory, and is used to temporarily store operation data in a CPU (Central Processing Unit ) and data exchanged with an external Memory such as a hard disk. As long as the computer is in operation, the CPU will call the data to be operated to the memory for operation, and after the operation is completed, the CPU will transmit the operation result to the memory.

There are two types of buffers used by graphics cards: one is a buffer shared with the CPU whose physical location is system memory, a computer term called GTT (graphics translation table ). The other is a storage area which is exclusively shared by the GPU, the physical location of which is an independent storage granule on the graphics card, and the computing term VRAM (Video RAM, image random access memory). The characteristics of GTT and VRAM are: the GTT is an area which can be accessed by both the CPU and the GPU, the CPU access speed is higher, and the GPU access speed is slower; the VRAM is mainly a storage area used by the GPU, the CPU access speed is slower, and the GPU access speed is faster.

The process of drawing the graph by combining the Qt recorded in the background technology can be known that after the graph is drawn, the CPU copies the graph to the buffer area of the display card, and finally the display card copies the graph to the screen buffer area from the buffer area of the display card, and finally the graph is displayed on the screen. In the above-described graphics drawing process, there is a graphics copying process, which adds additional overhead. One of the core ideas of the embodiment of the invention is that the graphic copying process is reduced by setting the shared buffer area which can be accessed by the display card and the CPU, thereby reducing the problem of extra performance expenditure caused by copying and achieving the effect of improving the graphic drawing performance.

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart illustrating steps of an embodiment 1 of a method for drawing graphics according to the present invention may be applied to an electronic device, where the electronic device includes a screen buffer for displaying graphics on a screen, and a shared buffer that is accessible by both a graphics card and a CPU, and the method may specifically include the steps of:

step 101, the CPU performs graphics drawing in the shared buffer.

In the embodiment of the invention, a shared buffer area which can be accessed by both the display card and the CPU is arranged. In particular, in the invention, the graphics card can copy the graphics drawn in the shared buffer area, and the CPU can also process data in the shared buffer area. Specifically, when drawing a graphic, the CPU will complete drawing the graphic in the shared buffer.

In step 102, the CPU copies the drawn graphics from the shared buffer and submits the graphics to the screen buffer.

Because the shared buffer area of the embodiment of the invention is accessible to both the display card and the CPU, after the graphics are drawn by the shared buffer area, the display card can directly copy the drawn graphics from the shared buffer area and submit the drawn graphics to the screen buffer area for displaying the graphics on the screen.

And 103, the graphics card reads the graphics in the screen buffer area and displays the graphics on the screen of the electronic equipment.

When graphics need to be displayed on the screen of the electronic device, the graphics in the screen buffer may be accessed and read by the graphics card for display to the screen.

In the embodiment of the invention, the shared buffer area which can be accessed by the display card and the CPU is arranged in the electronic equipment, when graphic drawing is required, the CPU performs graphic drawing in the shared buffer area, and then the CPU directly copies drawn graphics from the shared buffer area and submits the drawn graphics to the screen buffer area of the electronic equipment, so that when graphic display is required on the screen, the display card can read the graphics in the screen buffer area to display the graphics on the screen.

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of steps of an embodiment 2 of a method for drawing graphics of the present invention is shown, and the method is applied to an electronic device, where the electronic device includes a screen buffer for displaying graphics on a screen, and a shared buffer that is accessible by both a graphics card and a CPU, where the CPU has a memory, and the method specifically includes the following steps:

step 201, the CPU calls a shared video memory allocation function provided by the video card.

In the embodiment of the invention, the CPU can be used for distributing the shared buffer area which is required by drawing the graph and can be accessed by the display card and the CPU through the self-defined shared video memory distribution function provided by the driver of the display card.

Step 202, the CPU allocates a shared buffer in the memory using the shared memory allocation function.

When drawing the graph, the CPU calls the shared video memory allocation function provided by the driver of the video card, and allocates the buffer area based on the function. It should be noted that, the characteristics of the buffer area allocated by the shared video memory allocation function are: the memory location is also in CPU memory so the graphics card hardware can access the buffer in addition to the performance of the graphics rendering process being unaffected. Therefore, the buffer allocated by the shared memory allocation function is also referred to as a shared buffer in the embodiment of the present invention.

In step 203, the CPU obtains a buffer address corresponding to the shared buffer, and submits the buffer address to the graphics card.

In practice, the shared buffer has a corresponding buffer address in the memory, and in order to enable the display card to access the shared buffer, the shared buffer is submitted to the display card for storage.

In step 205, the CPU performs graphics rendering in the shared buffer.

In drawing graphics, the CPU may perform conventional graphics drawing in the allocated shared buffer. Specifically, the step of performing graphics drawing in the CPU shared buffer may include: the CPU reads the buffer address; and the CPU performs graphic drawing in the shared buffer area corresponding to the buffer area address.

In a specific implementation, the graphic drawing is completed through a CPU graphic engine, and when the CPU graphic engine performs the graphic drawing, the CPU graphic engine only needs to perform the graphic drawing according to the buffer area address to the corresponding shared buffer area.

In step 206, the CPU copies the drawn graphics from the shared buffer and submits it to the screen buffer.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the step of copying the drawn graphic from the shared buffer and submitting to the screen buffer may include: the CPU controls the display card to read the drawn graph in the shared buffer area; and the CPU controls the graphics card to send the drawn graph to the screen buffer zone.

After the CPU graphic engine draws the graphic in the shared buffer area, the graphic card or software can be controlled to copy the drawn graphic out of the shared buffer area and submit the graphic to the screen buffer area.

And step 207, the graphics card reads the graphics in the screen buffer area and displays the graphics on the screen of the electronic equipment.

After the CPU submits the graphics data to the screen buffer, it may be displayed by the display controller on the screen of the electronic device.

In the embodiment of the invention, the CPU calls the self-defined shared video memory allocation function to allocate the shared buffer area which can be accessed by the video card and the CPU, so that when the CPU performs graphic drawing, the graphic can be drawn in the shared buffer area, and after drawing is completed, the video card is controlled to directly extract the drawn graphic from the shared buffer area and submit the drawn graphic to the screen buffer area, so that the video card can read and display the screen graphic. By applying the embodiment of the invention, the graphic copying process can be reduced, and the processing performance can be improved.

In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, qt is taken as an example, and the description is made in connection with the current process of implementing Qt graphic rendering and implementing Qt graphic rendering by the present invention.

Referring to a schematic diagram of a current Qt graphic drawing process shown in fig. 3, in the current graphic drawing process, firstly Qt allocates a buffer area in a system memory through a memory allocation function (malloc), then Qt performs graphic drawing in the allocated system memory, after the graphic drawing is completed, a CPU copies the graphic drawn by Qt to a video memory accessible by a video card, and finally the video card carries the graphic to a screen buffer area for screen display to display on a screen.

After the Qt finishes the graphic drawing, a graphic copying process of the CPU exists, and because the graphics card can only access the video memory area in the working process as determined by the characteristics of the graphics card described in the background technology, the data graphics card in the system memory can not be directly accessed, so that a one-step data copying process is added, the data is copied from the system memory to the video memory, and the hardware of the graphics card can only be accessed.

Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of a Qt graphic drawing process of the present invention includes the following specific implementation steps:

1. the CPU allocates a buffer area (which may also be referred to as a shared memory) required for Qt through a shared memory allocation function provided by a driver of the graphic card. The buffer area is characterized in that: the storage location is still in memory, so the performance of the Qt rendering process is not affected, while the graphics card hardware is also able to access the buffer, so no additional data copying process is required.

2. Qt performs normal graphics rendering in the allocated shared memory, which is done by the CPU. All that is required for the CPU to draw is based on a buffer, only one buffer address is needed, whether the buffer is system memory or shared memory is transparent to the Qt rendering engine. That is, the graphic drawing of the present invention is unchanged, only the drawing position is different.

3. After the CPU finishes drawing, the graphics card hardware directly copies the graphics from the shared video memory into a screen buffer area to be displayed on a screen.

According to the present graphic drawing process and the optimized graphic drawing process, the present invention can omit an additional graphic data copying process, namely, the step of copying the graphic into the video memory accessible by the video card by the CPU, so that the Qt graphic drawing efficiency is improved.

As can be seen from the above examples of the present invention, the graphics rendering optimization method based on Qt provided by the present invention includes: and the Qt is distributed to a memory buffer area for graphic drawing, and is distributed to a memory shared by the CPU and the GPU of the display card through the display card driving function interface, so that the Qt drawing process is finished in the memory, and the drawing performance is not affected.

The process of updating the graphics to the screen after the graphics are drawn can be directly completed by the display card, so that the step of copying the graphics to a buffer area of the display card by a CPU (Central processing Unit) is omitted, and the overall Qt drawing performance is provided. The invention solves the problem of extra performance overhead caused by memory graph copying in the current Qt graph drawing process, and achieves the effect of improving the Qt graph drawing performance.
