摘要:
Register identification preservation in a microprocessor implementing register renaming. Multiplexing and control circuitry are implemented for manipulating data sources to be supplied to a microprocessor's functional units. The circuitry will generate zero extending for source data to an execution unit where a data source register specified is shorter than a general register size utilized by the microprocessor. Similarly, the multiplexing and control circuitry will shift bits of data from one location to another upon a source input to a functional unit in accordance with control signals designating such activity.
