发明名称 Predicting a jump target based on a program counter and state information for a process
摘要 One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that predicts a jump target for a jump instruction. During operation, the system starts fetching the jump instruction while executing a process. Next, the system uses a program counter for the process and uses state information that is specific to the process to look up the jump target for the jump instruction. Finally, the system uses the jump target returned by the lookup as a predicted jump target for the jump instruction.
