COMPUTER PROCESSOR WITH GENERATION RENAMING |
摘要 |
A processor including a register file having a plurality of registers, and configured for out-of-order instruction execution, further includes a renamer unit that produces generation numbers that are associated with register file addresses to provide a renamed version of a register that is temporally offset from an existing version of that register rather than assigning a non-programmer-visible physical register as the renamed register. The processor includes a small reset DHL Gshare branch prediction unit coupled to an instruction cache and configured to provide speculative addresses to the instruction cache. |
