The invention provides a method and system for performing instructions in a microprocessor having a set of registers, in which instructions which operate on portions of a register are recognized, and "stitching" instructions are inserted into the instruction stream to couple the instructions operating on the portions of the register. The "stitching" parcels are serialized along with other instruction parcels, so that instructions which read from or write to portions of a register can proceed independently and out of their original order, while maintaining the results of that out-or-order operation to be the same as if all instructions were performed in the original order. In a preferred embodiment, the choice of stitching parcels is optimized to the Intel x86 architecture and instruction set. |
