A 2-D GATHER INSTRUCTION AND A 2-D CACHE

A 2-D GATHER INSTRUCTION AND A 2-D CACHE

A processor may support a two-dimensional (2-D) gather instruction and a 2-D cache. The processor may perform the 2-D gather instruction to access one or more sub-blocks of data from a two-dimensional (2-D) image stored in a memory coupled to the processor. The two-dimensional (2-D) cache may store...

Zusammenfassung:A processor may support a two-dimensional (2-D) gather instruction and a 2-D cache. The processor may perform the 2-D gather instruction to access one or more sub-blocks of data from a two-dimensional (2-D) image stored in a memory coupled to the processor. The two-dimensional (2-D) cache may store the sub-blocks of data in a multiple cache lines. Further, the 2-D cache may support access of more than one cache lines while preserving a two-dimensional structure of the 2-D image.
