OUT-OF-ORDER EXECUTION OF LOOP INSTRUCTIONS IN A MICROPROCESSOR
A processor includes a loop detection unit to detect an OOO-loop based on the reserved resources for execution of the OOO loop. The processor executes the OOO loop by reading source operand data on first iteration of the loop and write back data on the last iteration of the loop while allowing instr...

Zusammenfassung: | A processor includes a loop detection unit to detect an OOO-loop based on the reserved resources for execution of the OOO loop. The processor executes the OOO loop by reading source operand data on first iteration of the loop and write back data on the last iteration of the loop while allowing instructions after the loop to be concurrently executed. |
