Zusammenfassung: | A method for detecting an instruction ordering violation in a CPU. The method includes receiving a reordered stream of instructions and detecting whether an ordering violation has occurred by using virtual addresses. The method further includes transferring results of the reordered stream of instructions from a load store buffer into a cache and detecting whether an ordering violation has occurred by using physical addresses. Subsequently, a recovery is initiated upon detection of an ordering violation. |
