Zusammenfassung:An apparatus to facilitate a dynamically scalable and partitioned copy engine is disclosed. The apparatus includes a processor comprising copy engine hardware circuitry to facilitate copying surface data in memory and comprising: a plurality of copy front-end hardware circuitry to generate a plurality of surface data sub-blocks, wherein a number of the plurality of copy front-end hardware circuitry corresponds to a number of partitions configured for the processor, with each partition associated with a single copy front-end hardware circuitry; a plurality of copy back-end hardware circuitry to operate in parallel to process the plurality of surface data sub-blocks to perform memory accesses, wherein subsets of the plurality of copy back-end hardware circuitry are each associated with the single copy front-end hardware circuitry associated with each partition; and a connectivity matrix hardware circuitry to communicably connect the plurality of copy front-end hardware circuitry to the plurality of copy back-end hardware circuitry.
