摘要:
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.

Embodiments of the invention relate a hybrid hardware and software implementation of transactional memory accesses in a computer system. A processor including a transactional cache and a regular cache is utilized in a computer system that includes a policy manager to select one of a first mode (a hardware mode) or a second mode (a software mode) to implement transactional memory accesses. In the hardware mode the transactional cache is utilized to perform read and write memory operations and in the software mode the regular cache is utilized to perform read and write memory operations.

Disclosed are embodiments of an apparatus, system, and method for implementing a register stack using micro-operations. A register stack engine generates a plurality of micro-operations to implement a memory operation in support of register windowing, such as spill or fill to/from a backing store. These micro-operations are inserted into an execution pipeline along with other micro-operations not related to register stack operation.

A technique to route data according to a speculative priority. At least one embodiment detects a conflict among a number of data received by the router, assigns a speculative priority to one of the data in a first clock portion and sends the speculatively prioritized data to a receiving agent in a subsequent clock portion.
