摘要:
A system including a dual function adder is described. In one embodiment, the system includes an adder. The adder is configured for a first instruction to determine an address for a hardware prefetch if the first instruction is a hardware prefetch instruction. The adder is further configures for the first instruction to determine a value from an arithmetic operation if the first instruction is an arithmetic operation instruction.
