    摘要： An instruction buffer of a high speed digital computer controls the flow of instruction stream to an instruction decoder. The buffer provides the decoder with nine bytes of sequential instruction stream. The instruction set used by the computer is of the variable length type, such that the decoder consumes a variable number of the instruction stream bytes, depending upon the type of instruction being decoded. As each instruction is consumed, a shifter removes the consumed bytes and repositions the remaining bytes into the lowest order positions. The byte positions left empty by the shifter are filled by instruction stream retrieved from one of a pair of prefetch buffers (IBEX, IBEX2) or from a virtual instruction cache. These prefetch buffers are arranged to hold the next two subsequent quadwords of instruction stream and provide the desired missing bytes. The IBEX prefetch buffer is filled from the instruction cache after being emptied, but prior to those particular bytes being requested to fill the instruction decoder. This two level prefetching allows the relatively slow process of cache access to be performed during noncritical time. The instruction decoder is not stalled, waiting for a cache refill, but can ordinarily obtain the desired bytes of instruction stream from the prefetch buffer.

    摘要： An instruction decoder generates implied specifiers for certain predefined instructions, and an operand processing unit preprocess most of the implied specifiers in the same fashion as express operand specifiers. For instructions having an implied autoincrement or autodecrement of the stack pointer, an implied read or write access type is assigned to the instruction and the decode logic is configured accordingly. When an opcode is decoded and is found to have an implied write specifier, a destination operand is created for autodecrementing the stack pointer. If an opcode is decoded and found to have an implied read specifier, a source operand is created for autoincrementing the stack pointer. A register or short literal specifier can be decoded simultaneously with the generation of the implied operand. Therefore some common instructions such as "PUSH Rx" can be decoded in a single cycle. The preprocessing of implied specifiers in addition permits more complex instructions such as "BSR DEST" to be executed in a single cycle. Conflicts created by the implied specifiers are handled in the same manner as conflicts for express specifiers. Moreover, by using the same data paths for both the implied specifiers and the express specifiers, and by inserting queues between the instruction unit and the execution unit, performance gains are realized for instructions having implied specifiers as well as just express specifiers.

    摘要： A roof is disclosed for a mobile home or the like. The roof comprises an existing roof having peripheral blocks disposed along the entire peripheral edge of the existing roof. Insulative material overlies the existing roof and is encompassed by the peripheral blocks. Marginal flashing of impervious material overlies the peripheral blocks and includes a first and a second limb. An upstanding portion is disposed adjacent the distal end of the first limb. Supplementary roof sheets of impervious material overlie the insulative material, the upstanding portion and the first limb and a lag screw or the like secures the first limb between the supplementary roof sheets and the peripheral blocks.

    摘要： In a pipeline processor, simultaneous decoding of multiple specifiers in a variable-length instruction causes a peculiar problem of an intra-instruction read conflict that occurs whenever an instruction includes an autoincrement or an autodecrement specifier which references either directly or indirectly a register specified by a previously occurring specifier for the current instruction. To avoid stalls during the preprocessing of instructions by the instruction unit, register pointers rather than register data are usually passed to the excellent unit because register data is not always available at the time of instruction decoding. If an intra-instruction read conflict exists, however, the operand value specified by the conflicting register specifier is the initial value of the register being incremented or decremented, and this initial value will have been changed by the time that the execution unit executes the instruction. Preferably, the proper initial value is obtained prior to the incrementing or decrementing of the conflicting register by putting the instruction decoder into a special IRC mode in which only one specifier is decoded per cycle, and if a specifier being decoded is a register specifier, the content of the specified register is transmitted to the execution unit. Circuitry for detecting an intra-instruction read conflict is disclosed as well as an efficient method for handling interrupts, exceptions and flushes that may occur during the processing of an instruction having an intra-instruction read conflict.

    摘要： A main memory and cache suitable for scalar processing are used in connection with a vector processor by issuing prefetch requests in response to the recognition of a vector load instruction. A respective prefetch request is issued for each block containing an element of the vector to be loaded from memory. In response to a prefetch request, the cache is checked for a "miss" and if the cache does not include the required block, a refill request is sent to the main memory. The main memory is configured into a plurality of banks and has a capability of processing multiple references. Therefore the different banks can be referenced simultaneously to prefetch multiple blocks of vector data. Preferably a cache bypass is provided to transmit data directly to the vector processor as the data from the main memory are being stored in the cache. In a preferred embodiment, a vector processor is added to a digital computing system including a scalar processor, a virtual address translation buffer, a main memory and a cache. The scalar processor includes a microcode interpreter which sends a vector load command to the vector processing unit and which also generates vector prefetch requests. The addresses for the data blocks to be prefetched are computed based upon the vector address, the length of the vector and the "stride" or spacing between the addresses of the elements of the vector.
