摘要： Methods and apparatus for using micro-op caches in processors are disclosed. A tag match for an instruction pointer retrieves a set of micro-op cache line access tuples having matching tags. The set is stored in a match queue. Line access tuples from the match queue are used to access cache lines in a micro-op cache data array to supply a micro-op queue. On a micro-op cache miss, a macroinstruction translation engine (MITE) decodes macroinstructions to supply the micro-op queue. Instruction pointers are stored in a miss queue for fetching macroinstructions from the MITE. The MITE may be disabled to conserve power when the miss queue is empty-likewise for the micro-op cache data array when the match queue is empty. Synchronization flags in the last micro-op from the micro-op cache on a subsequent micro-op cache miss indicate where micro-ops from the MITE merge with micro-ops from the micro-op cache.

摘要： A memory cache bank prediction unit is provided for use in a processor having a plurality of memory cache banks. The memory cache bank prediction unit has an input port that receives an instruction. The memory cache bank prediction unit also has an evaluation unit, coupled to the input port, that predicts which of the plurality of memory cache banks is associated with the instruction.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for partitioning a microprocessor pipeline to support pipelined branch prediction and instruction fetching of multiple execution threads. A thread selection stage selects a thread from a plurality of execution threads. In one embodiment, storage in a branch prediction output queue is pre-allocated to a portion of the thread in one branch prediction stage in order to prevent stalling of subsequent stages in the branch prediction pipeline. In another embodiment, an instruction fetch stage fetches instructions at a fetch address corresponding to a portion of the selected thread. Another instruction fetch stage stores the instruction data in an instruction fetch output queue if enough storage is available. Otherwise, instruction fetch stages corresponding to the selected thread are invalidated and refetched to avoid stalling preceding stages in the instruction fetch pipeline, which may be fetching instructions of another thread.

摘要： Techniques for vector completion mask (VCM) handling are provided. A data structure includes a mask field for each operand of a particular operation. A processor attempts to execute the operation with multiple operands, which are identified in the data structure by the mask fields. If operands are successfully retrieved for execution with the operation, then the corresponding mask field within the data structure is cleared. The processor can reset if any field remains set within the data structure and can re-process the operation with operands that were not previously handled with the operation.
