    Abstract: A computer processor includes a decoder for decoding machine instructions and an execution unit for executing those instructions. The decoder and the execution unit are capable of decoding and executing vector instructions that include one or more format conversion indicators. For instance, the processor may be capable of executing a vector-load-convert-and-write (VLoadConWr) instruction that provides for loading data from memory to a vector register. The VLoadConWr instruction may include a format conversion indicator to indicate that the data from memory should be converted from a first format to a second format before the data is loaded into the vector register. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes a decode logic to receive and decode a first memory access instruction to store data in a cache memory with a replacement state indicator of a first level, and to send the decoded first memory access instruction to a control logic. In turn, the control logic is to store the data in a first way of a first set of the cache memory and to store the replacement state indicator of the first level in a metadata field of the first way responsive to the decoded first memory access instruction. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
