Abstract:
A method of controlling an operation of a processing device that comprises at least a first and second predicate execution registers comprises predicating a first instruction on the first predicate execution register. A second instruction is predicated on the second predicate execution register. The first predicate execution register is set based on a condition. The second predicate execution register is set to an inverse of the first of the predicate execution registers.
