摘要： A processor that facilitates rapid progress while speculatively executing instructions in scout mode. During normal operation, the processor executes instructions in a normal execution mode. Upon encountering a stall condition, the processor executes the instructions in a scout mode, wherein the instructions are speculatively executed to prefetch future loads, but wherein results are not committed to the architectural state of the processor. While speculatively executing the instructions in scout mode, the processor maintains dependency information for each register indicating whether or not a value in the register depends on an unresolved data-dependency. If an instruction to be executed in scout mode depends on an unresolved data dependency, the processor executes the instruction as a NOOP so that the instruction executes rapidly without tying up computational resources. The processor also propagates dependency information indicating an unresolved data dependency to a destination register for the instruction.

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates avoiding locks by speculatively executing critical sections of code. During operation, the system allows a process to speculatively execute a critical section of code within a program without first acquiring a lock associated with the critical section. If the process subsequently completes the critical section without encountering an interfering data access from another process, the system commits changes made during the speculative execution, and resumes normal non-speculative execution of the program past the critical section. Otherwise, if an interfering data access from another process is encountered during execution of the critical section, the system discards changes made during the speculative execution, and attempts to re-execute the critical section.
摘要翻译：本发明的一个实施例提供一种通过推测性地执行代码的关键部分来有助于避免锁定的系统。在操作期间，系统允许进程在程序中推测性地执行代码的关键部分而不首先获得与关键部分相关联的锁定。如果该过程随后完成关键部分而没有遇到来自另一进程的干扰数据访问，则系统进行在推测执行期间所做的更改，并且通过关键部分恢复程序的正常非推测性执行。否则，如果在执行关键部分期间遇到来自其他进程的干扰数据访问，则系统将丢弃在推测执行期间所做的更改，并尝试重新执行临界部分。

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates storing results of resolvable branches during speculative execution, and then using the results to predict the same branches during non-speculative execution. During operation, the system executes code within a processor. Upon encountering a stall condition, the system speculatively executes the code from the point of the stall, without committing results of the speculative execution to the architectural state of the processor. Upon encountering a branch instruction that is resolved during speculative execution, the system stores the result of the resolved branch in a branch queue, so that the result can be subsequently used to predict the branch during non-speculative execution.
摘要翻译：本发明的一个实施例提供了一种有助于在推测性执行期间存储可分解分支的结果的系统，然后在非推测性执行期间使用结果来预测相同的分支。在操作期间，系统在处理器内执行代码。在遇到停顿状态时，系统从失速点推测地执行代码，而不会将推测性执行的结果提交给处理器的体系结构状态。在遇到在推测执行期间解析的分支指令时，系统将解析的分支的结果存储在分支队列中，以便随后可以在非推测性执行期间将结果用于预测分支。

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that selectively monitors load instructions to support transactional execution of a process, wherein changes made during the transactional execution are not committed to the architectural state of a processor until the transactional execution successfully completes. Upon encountering a load instruction during transactional execution of a block of instructions, the system determines whether the load instruction is a monitored load instruction or an unmonitored load instruction. If the load instruction is a monitored load instruction, the system performs the load operation, and load-marks a cache line associated with the load instruction to facilitate subsequent detection of an interfering data access to the cache line from another process. If the load instruction is an unmonitored load instruction, the system performs the load operation without load-marking the cache line.

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates executing a commit instruction, which marks the end of a block of instructions to be executed transactionally. Upon encountering the commit instruction during execution of a program, the system successfully completes transactional execution of the block of instructions preceding the commit instruction. Changes made during the transactional execution are not committed to the architectural state of the processor until the transactional execution successfully completes.

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates delaying interfering memory accesses from other threads during transactional execution. During transactional execution of a block of instructions, the system receives a request from another thread (or processor) to perform a memory access involving a cache line. If performing the memory access on the cache line will interfere with the transactional execution and if it is possible to delay the memory access, the system delays the memory access and stores copy-back information for the cache line to enable the cache line to be copied back to the requesting thread. At a later time, when the memory access will no longer interfere with the transactional execution, the system performs the memory access and copies the cache line back to the requesting thread.
摘要翻译：本发明的一个实施例提供了一种在事务执行期间有助于延迟来自其他线程的干扰存储器访问的系统。在一个指令块的事务执行期间，系统从另一个线程（或处理器）接收到执行涉及高速缓存线的存储器访问的请求。如果执行高速缓存行上的存储器访问将干扰事务执行，并且如果可以延迟存储器访问，则系统延迟存储器访问并存储用于高速缓存行的复制信息以使得能够复制高速缓存行回到请求线程。在稍后的时间，当内存访问不再干扰事务执行时，系统执行内存访问并将缓存行复制回请求的线程。

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that avoids read-after-write (RAW) hazards while speculatively executing instructions on a processor. The system starts in a normal execution mode, wherein the system issues instructions for the execution in program order. Upon encountering a stall condition during execution of an instruction, the system generates a checkpoint, and executes the instruction and subsequent instruction in a speculative-execution mode. The system also maintains dependency information for each register indication whether or not a value in the register depends on an unresolved data-dependency. The system uses this dependency information to avoid RAW hazards during the speculative-execution mode.
