A method and system for reducing a latency of microprocessor instructions in transit along an instruction pipeline of a microprocessor by bypassing, at certain times, a fill buffer located between an instruction source and a trace cache unit on the instruction pipeline. The signal path through the fill buffer to the trace cache unit represent a first signal path. In the instruction pipeline, a second signal path is also provided, one which also leads instructions to the trace cache unit, not through the fill buffer, but through a latch provided on the second instruction path. If the latch is enabled, a set of instructions appearing at the input of the fill buffer is transmitted through the latch along the second instruction path and to the trace cache. As a result, the fill buffer is bypassed and a reduced latency for the bypassed instructions is achieved along the instruction pipeline.

A method and device are provided for reading data from a trace cache in a manner that reduces the time and power consumed by such an operation. A mini-tag is provided for comparing to a requested address to reduce the amount of data that must be read. Mini-tag read and compare operations may be performed in parallel to a full tag read operation, and a data read operation of only the data identified by a matching mini-tag may be performed in parallel to a full tag compare operation. A victim selection method for writing data into the trace cache is used to maintain the uniqueness of the mini-tags.

Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a processor includes: a multiple unit instruction pipeline. An instruction pipeline includes a microcode source. The microcode source includes the capability of detecting the occurrence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction. The microcode source is also capable of signaling the occurrence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction to at least one other instruction pipeline unit. Briefly, in accordance with another embodiment of the invention, a method of executing microcode instructions includes the following. The existence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction is detected and the occurrence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction is signaled. Briefly, in accordance with one more embodiment of the invention, a system includes: a processor with a microcode source capable of detecting the occurrence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction and signaling the occurrence of at least one corrupted microcode instruction to at least one other instruction pipeline unit. The system employing the processor further includes main memory, a video card, a system bus, and bulk storage capability.

Disclosed herein is a polyolefin-based thermoplastic polymer composition, in which an acrylate copolymer phase obtained by absorbing an alkyl acrylate monomer, an alkyl methacrylate monomer, a polar group-containing acrylate monomer and a polymerization initiator into a polyolefin matrix and then polymerizing the monomers is dispersed in a polyolefin phase. The thermoplastic polymer composition has excellent surface polarity leading to excellent paint adhesion.
