A processor (100) includes an ordinary instruction buffer (122) for storing and supplying one or more instructions fetched from an instruction cache (10), a TAR instruction buffer (123) for storing the one or more instructions fetched from the instruction cache (10) and supplying them secondarily, a selector (121) for seiecting either the ordinary instruction buffer (122) or the TAR instruction buffer (123) as an instruction supplying source, and an instruction fetch control unit (102) for fetching, when a TAR filling instruction is executed, one or more instructions specified by the TAR filling instruction, and for controlling the selector (121) to select the TAR instruction buffer (123), in the case where case one or more fetched instructions are repeatedly supplied, thereby to supply an instruction through the selector (121) from the TAR instruction buffer (123). |
