Table 7: Fast Access Registers
This section describes in detail the resource pool concept and the aperture
assignment for pool and non-pool resources. A resource in general is a functional unit
which performs a certain independent task in the video display chain of the QVCP.
If no pool resources are used, the data flow for a single image surface through the
QVCP is strictly horizontal i.e., the pixel stream flows through the layer and does not
leave it. The pool resources are assigned by default to one of the layers. However the
pool resources are bypassed by default, which results in all layers becoming identical
in their function.
To assign a pool resource to a different layer it requires the following:
Each functional unit (resource) used in a QVCP layer has a unique identifier. It is
used to control the assignment of this resource to a specific QVCP layer aperture
location.

the QVCP. A 32-bit identifier is used for the resource ID which allows for the addition
of functional units in future derivatives.

Ensure that the resource shows up in the assigned layer aperture.
Ensure that the pixel data stream of the particular layer is directed through the
selected resource.
