    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is a processor including execution circuitry to calculate, in response to a decoded instruction, a result of a complex multiplication of a first complex number and a second complex number. The calculation includes a first operation to calculate a first term of a real component of the result and a first term of the imaginary component of the result. The calculation also includes a second operation to calculate a second term of the real component of the result and a second term of the imaginary component of the result. The processor also includes a decoder, a first source register, and a second source register. The decoder is to decode an instruction to generate the decoded instruction. The first source register is to provide the first complex number and the second source register is to provide the second complex number.

    Abstract: A processor includes a decoder, a data return buffer, and an execution unit. The decoder is to decode an instruction for a non-posted load into a decoded instruction for loading data from memory mapped input/output. The execution unit is for executing the decoded instruction. The execution is to start a timer, determine whether the timer exceeds a timeout threshold, allocate an entry in the data return buffer for the load, and determine whether an event arrived. The timer is to measure an amount of time taken to return the non-posted load instruction. The determination whether an event arrived is made in response to at least one of the allocation of the entry for the load, or a determination that the timer exceeds the timeout threshold.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes at least a first core. The first core includes execution logic to execute operations, and a first event counter to determine a first event count associated with events of a first type that have occurred since a start of a first defined interval. The first core also includes a second event counter to determine a second event count associated with events of a second type that have occurred since the start of the first defined interval, and stall logic to stall execution of operations including at least first operations associated with events of the first type, until the first defined interval is expired responsive to the first event count exceeding a first combination threshold concurrently with the second event count exceeding a second combination threshold. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
