INSTRUCTION MERGING OPTIMIZATION

摘要

A computer system for optimizing instructions includes a processor including an instruction execution unit configured to execute instructions and an instruction optimization unit configured to optimize instructions and memory to store machine instructions to be executed by the instruction execution unit. The computer system is configured to perform a method including analyzing machine instructions from among a stream of instructions to be executed by the instruction execution unit, the machine instructions including a memory load instruction and a data processing instruction to perform a data processing function based on the memory load instruction, identifying the machine instructions as being eligible for optimization, merging the machine instructions into a single optimized internal instruction, and executing the single optimized internal instruction to perform a memory load function and a data processing function corresponding to the memory load instruction and the data processing instruction.
