    摘要: A device and method may fetch an instruction or micro-operation for execution. An indication may be made as to whether the instruction is dependent upon any source values corresponding to a set of previously fetched instructions. A value may be stored corresponding to each source value from which the first instruction depends. An indication may be made for each of the set of sources of the instruction, whether the source depends on a previously loaded value or source, where indicating may include storing a value corresponding to the indication. The instruction may be executed after the stored values associated with the instruction indicate the dependencies are satisfied.

    摘要: A processor to perform an out-of-order (OOO) processing in which a reservation station (RS) may generate and process a dependency controlled flow comprising multiple micro-operations (uops) with specific clock based dispatch scheme. The RS may either combine two or more uops into a single RS entry or make a direct connection between two or more RS entries. The RS may allow more than two source values to be associated with a single RS by combining sources from the two or more uops. One or more execution units may be provisioned to perform the function defined by the uops. The execution units may receive more than two sources at a given time point and produce two or more results on different ports.

    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 partial execution unit of a splittable execution unit performs an operation on a portion of one or more arguments of a micro-operation to generate a first partial execution result of the micro-operation. A complementary portion of one of the arguments is passed through a bypass execution unit instead of through the splittable execution unit to generate a second partial execution result of the micro-operation. The first partial execution result and second partial execution result are concatenated into a full execution result.
