发明名称 OPTIMAL DEALLOCATION OF INSTRUCTIONS FROM A UNIFIED PICK QUEUE
摘要 Systems and methods for efficient out-of-order dynamic deallocation of entries within a shared storage resource in a processor. A processor comprises a unified pick queue that includes an array configured to dynamically allocate any entry of a plurality of entries for a decoded and renamed instruction. This instruction may correspond to any available active threads supported by the processor. The processor includes circuitry configured to determine whether an instruction corresponding to an allocated entry of the plurality of entries is dependent on a speculative instruction and whether the instruction has a fixed instruction execution latency. In response to determining the instruction is not dependent on a speculative instruction, the instruction has a fixed instruction execution latency, and said latency has transpired, the circuitry may deallocate the instruction from the allocated entry.
