摘要： A method of operating an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) by inverting a result of an operation to be executed during a current cycle in response to control signals from instruction decode logic which indicate that a later operation will require a complement of the result, wherein the result is inverted during the current cycle. The later operation may be a subtraction operation that immediately follows the first operation. The later instruction is decoded prior to the current cycle to control the inversion in the ALU. The ALU includes an adder, a rotator, and a data manipulation unit which invert the result during the current cycle in response to an invert control signal. The second operation subtracts the result during a subsequent cycle in which a carry control signal to the adder is enabled, and the rotator and the data manipulation unit are disabled. The ALU may be used in an execution unit of a microprocessor, such as a fixed-point unit.

摘要： A method of discovering a fault in a circuit is disclosed. The method comprises generating a first result of a selected function by performing the selected function on an operand, wherein the selected function employs a mask. Once the function is performed, an antimask of the mask is created, and the modulo of the antimask is calculated. A modulo function of the first result of the selected function is calculated to obtain a third result. A modulo of the operand is then calculated to obtain a fourth result, and a second function is then performed on the second result and the third result to obtain a fifth result. In response to comparing the fifth result to the fourth result, a signal is propagated to indicate a fault in the circuit.

摘要： A memory array includes a storage unit with a number of sections and decoders coupled to respective ones of the sections for decoding an N-bit address signal and responsively asserting a signal on one of the word lines selected by the address signal. Local clock buffers are coupled to respective ones of the decoders for receiving a clock signal and an address signal including M most-significant bits of the N-bit address signal and generating respective timing signals. The decoders receive the timing signal from their respective local clock buffers. Each decoder is operable to alternately precharge and evaluate the N-bit address signal responsive to phases of the timing signal. Each local clock buffer is operable, responsive to a state of the M bits of the address signal, for selecting between holding its timing signal in a deasserted state and enabling its timing signal to follow the clock signal.

摘要： A method and system for improving pre-fetch accuracy in a data processing system utilizing a pre-fetch history table is disclosed. The method compares a portion of an instruction address to an address located as an entry in a pre-fetch history table based on the status of a validity bit contained in the entry. If the validity bit is set and the addresses match, an indicator field within the entry is checked to see if it is equal to or greater than a threshold level. When the indicator field is greater than the threshold level, a target operand address is pre-fetched based on stride and direction.

摘要： Within a data processing system implementing L1 and L2 caches and stream filters and buffers, prefetching of cache lines is performed in a progressive manner. In one mode, data may not be prefetched. In a second mode, two cache lines are prefetched wherein one line is prefetched into the L1 cache and the next line is prefetched into a stream buffer. In a third mode, more than two cache lines are prefetched at a time. In the third mode cache lines may be prefetched to the L1 cache and not the L2 cache, resulting in no inclusion between the L1 and L2 caches.

摘要： Method, system and computer program product for generating effective addresses in a data processing system. A method, in a data processing system, for generating an effective address includes generating a first portion of the effective address by calculating a first plurality of effective address bits of the effective address, and generating a second portion of the effective address by guessing a second plurality of effective address bits of the effective address. By intelligently guessing a plurality of the effective address bits that form the effective address, the effective address can be generated and sent to a translation unit more quickly than in a system in which all the effective address bits of the effective address are calculated. The method and system is particularly suitable for generating effective addresses in a CAM-based effective address translation design in a multi-threaded environment.

摘要： One embodiment of a processor includes a fetch stage, decoder stage, execution stage and completion stage. The execution stage includes a primary execution stage for handling low latency instructions and a secondary execution stage for handling higher latency instructions. A detector determines if an instruction is a high latency instruction or a low latency instruction. If the detector also finds that a particular low latency instruction is dependent on, and destructive of, a corresponding high latency instruction, then the secondary execution stage dynamically fuses the execution of the low latency instruction together with the execution of the high latency instruction. Otherwise, the primary execution stage handles the execution of the low latency instruction.
