Abstract:
Systems, methods and computer program product provide for pipelining out-of-order instructions. Embodiments comprise an instruction reservation station for short instructions of a short latency type and long instructions of a long latency type, an issue queue containing at least two short instructions of a short latency type, which are to be chained to match a latency of a long instruction of a long latency type, a register file, at least one execution pipeline for instructions of a short latency type and at least one execution pipeline for instructions of a long latency type; wherein results of the at least one execution pipeline for instructions of the short latency type are written to the register file, preserved in an auxiliary buffer, or forwarded to inputs of said execution pipelines. Data of the auxiliary buffer are written to the register file.
