A method and apparatus for tracking and reclaiming physical registers is presented. Some embodiments of the apparatus include rename logic configurable to map architectural registers to physical registers. The rename logic is configurable to bypass allocation of a physical register to an architectural register when information to be written to the architectural register satisfies a bypass condition. Some embodiments of the apparatus also include a plurality of first bits associated with the architectural registers. The rename logic is configurable to set one of the first bits to indicate that allocation of a physical register to the corresponding architectural register has been bypassed. |
