Abstract:
A processing device includes a store instruction identification unit to identify a pair of store instructions among a plurality of instructions in an instruction queue. The pair of store instructions include a first store instruction and a second store instruction. The first data of the first store instruction corresponds to a first memory region adjacent to a second memory region, and a second data of the second store instruction corresponds to the second memory region. The processing device to include a store instruction fusion unit to fuse the first store instruction with the second store instruction resulting in a fused store instruction.
Abstract:
A method and system to provide user-level multithreading are disclosed. The method according to the present techniques comprises receiving programming instructions to execute one or more shared resource threads (shreds) via an instruction set architecture (ISA). One or more instruction pointers are configured via the ISA; and the one or more shreds are executed simultaneously with a microprocessor, wherein the microprocessor includes multiple instruction sequencers.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses relating to preventing the execution of a modified instruction. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a hardware binary translator to translate an instruction to a translated instruction, and a consistency hardware manager to prevent execution of the translated instruction by a hardware processor on detection of a modification to a virtual to physical address mapping of the instruction after the translation.
