Abstract:
In one embodiment, a processor comprises a retire unit and a load/store unit coupled thereto. The retire unit is configured to retire a first store memory operation responsive to the first store memory operation having been processed at least to a pipeline stage at which exceptions are reported for the first store memory operation. The load/store unit comprises a queue having a first entry assigned to the first store memory operation. The load/store unit is configured to retain the first store memory operation in the first entry subsequent to retirement of the first store memory operation if the first store memory operation is not complete. The queue may have multiple entries, and more than one store may be retained in the queue after being retired by the retire unit.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a processor comprises a scheduler configured to issue a first instruction operation to be executed and an execution core coupled to the scheduler. Configured to execute the first instruction operation, the execution core comprises a plurality of replay sources configured to cause a replay of the first instruction operation responsive to detecting at least one of a plurality of replay cases. The scheduler is configured to inhibit issuance of the first instruction operation subsequent to the replay for a subset of the plurality of replay cases. The scheduler is coupled to receive an acknowledgement indication corresponding to each of the plurality of replay cases in the subset, and is configured to inhibit issuance of the first instruction operation until the acknowledgement indication is asserted that corresponds to an identified replay case of the subset.
