    摘要: Methods and systems provide for the fusing of multiple operations into a single micro-operation (uop). A method of decoding a macro-instruction provides for transferring data relating to a first operation from the macro-instruction to a uop. The uop is to be executed by an execution system of a processor. The method further provides for transferring data relating to a second operation from the macro-instruction to the uop.

    摘要: Periods of futile activity by one or more logic circuits of a component of a processor may be predicted, and then during each such period, one or more of the logic circuits may operate in a power-save state with reduced power consumption, with the latter part of the period being used to bring the logic circuits back into performance state, so that performance is not diminished beyond an acceptable level due to the power-save state. The decision of whether to reduce the power consumption of a particular logic circuit of a particular processor component is to have at a particular future time is made internally in the particular processor component based on one or more signals received by the particular processor component.

    摘要: A processor includes an instruction decoder to decode instructions into micro-operations for execution. The instruction decoder may include a programmable logic array to store templates to be addressed by instructions during decoding of the instructions. A collapsed template is addressed by one or more instructions during decoding into fused micro-operations and by one or more instructions during decoding into simple micro-operations. The instruction decoder may also include a multiplexer to select values of a field of the micro-operation based at least on an indication that the instruction being decoded is not being decoded into a simple micro-operation. The instruction decoder may also include a multiplexer to select values of a field of the micro-operation based at least on bits of a template field, where the number of bits of the template field is less than the number of bits of the field of the micro-operation.
