Dependency skipping in a load-compare-jump sequence of instructions by incorporating compare functionality into the jump instruction and auto-finishing the compare instruction
摘要:
A method of performing instructions in a computer processor architecture includes determining that a load instruction is being dispatched. Destination related data of the load instruction is written into a mapper of the architecture. A determination that a compare immediate instruction is being dispatched is made. A determination that a branch conditional instruction is being dispatched is made. The branch conditional instruction is configured to wait until the load instruction produces a result before the branch conditional instruction issues and executes. The branch conditional instruction skips waiting for a finish of the compare immediate instruction.
