Systems and methods for processing buffer data retirement conditions

摘要

A system and method for determining whether to retire a data entry from a buffer. A portion of the retirement conditions is processed prior to the data entry being considered for retirement resulting in faster processing of remaining retirement conditions at the time retirement of the data is to be considered. The results from the pre-processing are stored as predecoded retirement information, which is later used with the remaining retirement conditions to determine whether the data is to be retired from the buffer.
