摘要： An instruction translator translates a conditional store instruction (specifying data register, base register, and offset register of the register file) into at least two microinstructions. An out-of-order execution pipeline executes the microinstructions. To execute a first microinstruction, an execution unit receives a base value and an offset from the register file and generates a first result as a function of the base value and offset. The first result specifies the memory location address. To execute a second microinstruction, an execution unit receives the first result and writes the first result to an allocated entry in the store queue if the condition flags satisfy the condition (the store queue subsequently writes the data to the memory location specified by the address), and otherwise kills the allocated store queue entry so that the store queue does not write the data to the memory location specified by the address.

摘要翻译：指令翻译器将条件存储指令（指定寄存器文件的指定数据寄存器，基址寄存器和偏移寄存器）转换为至少两个微指令。无序执行管线执行微指令。为了执行第一微指令，执行单元从寄存器文件接收基值和偏移量，并且产生作为基值和偏移量的函数的第一结果。第一个结果指定内存位置地址。为了执行第二微指令，如果条件标志满足条件（存储队列随后将数据写入由地址指定的存储器位置），则执行单元接收第一结果并将第一结果写入存储队列中的已分配条目，，否则将杀死所分配的存储队列条目，使得存储队列不将数据写入由地址指定的存储器位置。

摘要： A microprocessor includes a cache memory and a grabline instruction. The grabline instruction specifies a memory address that implicates a cache line of the memory. The grabline instruction instructs the microprocessor to initiate a zero-beat read-invalidate transaction on the bus to obtain ownership of the cache line. The microprocessor foregoes initiating the transaction on the bus when executing the grabline instruction if the microprocessor determines that a store to the cache line would cause an exception.

摘要： An apparatus for allocating entries in a set associative cache memory includes an array that provides a first pseudo-least-recently-used (PLRU) vector in response to a first allocation request from a first functional unit. The first PLRU vector specifies a first entry from a set of the cache memory specified by the first allocation request. The first vector is a tree of bits comprising a plurality of levels. Toggling logic receives the first vector and toggles predetermined bits thereof to generate a second PLRU vector in response to a second allocation request from a second functional unit generated concurrently with the first allocation request and specifying the same set of the cache memory specified by the first allocation request. The second vector specifies a second entry different from the first entry from the same set. The predetermined bits comprise bits of a predetermined one of the levels of the tree.

摘要： A microprocessor instruction translator translates a macroinstruction into three microinstructions to perform a read/modify/write operation on a memory operand. A first microinstruction instructs the microprocessor to calculate a source address and to load the memory operand into the microprocessor from memory at the source address and to calculate a destination address. The second microinstruction instructs the microprocessor to perform an arithmetic or logical operation on the loaded memory operand to generate a result. The third microinstruction instructs the microprocessor to write the result to memory at the destination address calculated by the first microinstruction. A first execution unit receives the first microinstruction and responsively calculates the source address and loads the memory operand into the microprocessor from memory at the source address. A second execution unit also receives the first microinstruction and calculates the destination address. The first and second execution units are distinct execution units within the microprocessor.

摘要： A cache memory system includes a first array of storage elements each configured to store a cache line, a second array of storage elements corresponding to the first array of storage elements each configured to store a first partial status of the cache line in the corresponding storage element of the first array, and a third array of storage elements corresponding to the first array of storage elements each configured to store a second partial status of the cache line in the corresponding storage element of the first array. The second partial status indicates whether or not the cache line has been modified. When the cache memory system modifies the cache line within a storage element of the first array, it writes only the second partial status in the corresponding storage element of the third array to indicate that the cache line has been modified but refrains from writing the first partial status in the corresponding storage element of the second array. The cache memory system reads both the first partial status and the second partial status to determine the full status.

摘要： A microprocessor performs a speculative page tablewalk. The microprocessor includes a tablewalk engine that determines whether at least one of a predetermined set of conditions exists with respect to characteristics of the page of memory whose physical address specified by a memory access instruction is missing in the TLB, performs operations of the tablewalk in an out-of-order manner with respect to the execution of unretired program instructions older than the memory access instruction while none of the predetermined set of conditions exists, and waits to perform the operations of the tablewalk until the microprocessor has retired all program instructions older than the memory access instruction when at least one of the predetermined set of conditions exists. The predetermined set of conditions may include the tablewalk needing to load information from a strongly-ordered page, update page mapping information, or access a global page.

摘要： A microprocessor instruction translator translates a conditional load instruction into at least two microinstructions. An out-of-order execution pipeline executes the microinstructions. To execute a first microinstruction, an execution unit receives source operands from the source registers of a register file and responsively generates a first result using the source operands. To execute a second the microinstruction, an execution unit receives a previous value of the destination register and the first result and responsively reads data from a memory location specified by the first result and provides a second result that is the data if a condition is satisfied and that is the previous destination register value if not. The previous value of the destination register comprises a result produced by execution of a microinstruction that is the most recent in-order previous writer of the destination register with respect to the second microinstruction.
