'''Gen9.5''' (''Generation 9.5'') is the [[microarchitecture]] for [[Intel]]'s [[graphics processing unit]] utilized by {{\\|Kaby Lake}}-based, {{\\|Coffee Lake}}-based, {{\\|Comet Lake}}-based,and {{\\|Goldmont Plus}}-based microprocessors. Gen9.5 is the successor to {{\\|Gen9}} used by {{\\|Skylake}} and introduces a number of light enhancements.

==== Preemption Granularity ====
Preemption in Gen9 ({{\\|Skylake}}) was improved over Gen8 in a number of ways. Preemption is important for multi-tasking system and especially important for improving responsiveness of operations (i.e. the ability to stop and start operations quickly with minimal latency interruption for the end user). In {{\\|Broadwell}} ({{\\|Gen8}}) Intel added support for the ability to stop operations on object-level for 3D workloads such as on a triangle boundary (i.e. beginning of a triangle, between two triangles, between two lines  or points) and be able to preempt and restore back to those operations. In Gen9 Intel added the ability to stop execution units on an instruction boundary and be able to restore them (previously such preemption was only possible at the boundary of a kernel - i.e. the entire kernel execution must take places before preemption was possible). Gen9 added support for thread-group (complete kernel execution) to mid-thread (instruction boundary) for compute workloads:
