摘要:
A method of resolving simultaneous branch predictions prior to validation of the predicted branch instruction is disclosed. The method includes processing two or more predicted branch instructions, with each predicted branch instruction having a predicted state and a corrected state. The method further includes selecting one of the corrected states. Should one of the predicted branch instructions be mispredicted, the selected corrected state is used to direct future instruction fetches.
