So, it's basically the MESA Intel graphics pipeline?
EDIT:
For the downvoters and the unclear, the relevant bit talks about compiling exactly the instructions needed to change the image. As I understand it, this JIT recompilation of pixel shaders is effectively what was implemented in the mesa drivers for Intel chipsets.
