摘要:
Systems and methods of sharing processing resources in a multi-threading environment are disclosed. An exemplary method may include allocating a lock value for a resource lock, the lock value corresponding to a state of the resource lock. A first thread may yield at least a portion of the processing resources for another thread. The resource lock may be acquired for the first thread if the lock value indicates the resource lock is available.

Systems and methods for error recovery in an integer execution unit of a multi-core processor are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment a method may comprise checking parity for a transaction in an execution data path having parallel data registers. The method may also comprise copying one of the parallel data registers to a corrupt data register if parity fails.

In an embodiment, a processor for clock signal modulation includes a clock source to generate a global clock signal, at least one processor component, a counter, and a circuit. The circuit is to: adjust the counter based on a level of activity of the at least one processor component; modulate, based on a value of the counter, the global clock signal to generate a modulated clock signal; and provide the modulated clock signal to the at least one processor component. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
A method of parallel execution of a first and a second instruction in an in-order processor. Embodiments of the invention enable parallel execution of memory instructions that are stalled by cache memory misses. The in-order processor processes cache memory misses of instructions in parallel by overlapping the first cache memory miss with cache memory misses that occur after the first cache memory miss. Memory-level parallelism in the in-order processor can be increased when more parallel and outstanding cache memory misses are generated.
