Abstract:
A mechanism is provided for efficiently recycling a charge from a power domain that is discharging. A side of a discharging power domain normally coupled to a voltage supply is disconnected from the voltage supply. The side of the precharging power domain normally coupled to the voltage supply is currently disconnected from the voltage supply. The side of the discharging power domain normally coupled to the voltage supply is connected to a side of the precharging power domain normally coupled to the voltage supply. A side of the discharging power domain normally coupled to the ground is disconnected from ground. The side of the discharging power domain normally coupled to ground is connected to the voltage supply, thereby precharging the precharging power domain with the charge from the discharging power domain that would normally be lost due to leakage.
Abstract:
Systems, methods and computer program product provide for pipelining out-of-order instructions. Embodiments comprise an instruction reservation station for short instructions of a short latency type and long instructions of a long latency type, an issue queue containing at least two short instructions of a short latency type, which are to be chained to match a latency of a long instruction of a long latency type, a register file, at least one execution pipeline for instructions of a short latency type and at least one execution pipeline for instructions of a long latency type; wherein results of the at least one execution pipeline for instructions of the short latency type are written to the register file, preserved in an auxiliary buffer, or forwarded to inputs of said execution pipelines. Data of the auxiliary buffer are written to the register file.

Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) permute unit for a single-instruction-multiple-data stacked processor includes a first vector permute subunit and a second vector permute subunit. The first and second vector permute subunits are arranged in different layers of a 3D chip package. The vector permute subunits are each configured to process a portion of at least two input vectors. A first contact sub-field of the first vector permute subunit is configured to connect output ports of a first crossbar of the first vector permute subunit, holding an intermediate result of the first vector permute subunit, to a second contact sub-field of the second vector permute subunit. A first contact sub-field of the second vector permute subunit is configured to connect output ports of a first crossbar of the second vector permute subunit, holding an intermediate result of the second vector permute subunit, to a second contact sub-field of the first vector permute subunit.
