20080229078 | Dynamic Power Management in a Processor Design - Dynamic power management in a processor design is presented. A pipeline stage's stall detection logic detects a stall condition, and sends a signal to idle detection logic to gate off the pipeline's register clocks. The stall detection logic also monitors a downstream pipeline stage's stall condition, and instructs the idle detection logic to gate off the pipeline stage's registers when the downstream pipeline stage is in a stall condition as well. In addition, when the pipeline stage's stall detection logic detects a stall condition, either from the downstream pipeline stage or from its own pipeline units, the pipeline stage's stall detection logic informs an upstream pipeline stage to gate off its clocks and thus, conserve more power. | 09-18-2008 |

20090043997 | Time-Of-Life Counter For Handling Instruction Flushes From A Queue - Tracking the order of issued instructions using a counter is presented. In one embodiment, a saturating, decrementing counter is used. The counter is initialized to a value that corresponds to the processor's commit point. Instructions are issued from a first issue queue to one or more execution units and one or more second issue queues. After being issued by the first issue queue, the counter associated with each instruction is decremented during each instruction cycle until the instruction is executed by one of the execution units. Once the counter reaches zero it will be completed by the execution unit. If a flush condition occurs, instructions with counters equal to zero are maintained (i.e., not flushed or invalidated), while other instructions in the pipeline are invalidated based upon their counter values. | 02-12-2009 |
20090044030 | APPARATUS FOR DYNAMIC POWER MANAGEMENT IN AN EXECUTION UNIT USING PIPELINE WAVE FLOW CONTROL - Power is conserved by dynamically applying clocks to execution units in a pipeline of a microprocessor. A clock to an execution unit is applied only when an instruction to the execution unit is valid. At other times when the execution unit needs not to be operational, the clock is not applied to the execution unit. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a dynamic clock-control unit is used to provide a control signal to a local clock buffer providing a local clock to an execution unit. | 02-12-2009 |
20090077352 | PERFORMANCE OF AN IN-ORDER PROCESSOR BY NO LONGER REQUIRING A UNIFORM COMPLETION POINT ACROSS DIFFERENT EXECUTION PIPELINES - A method, system and processor for improving the performance of an in-order processor. A processor may include an execution unit with an execution pipeline that includes a backup pipeline and a regular pipeline. The backup pipeline may store a copy of the instructions issued to the regular pipeline. The execution pipeline may include logic for allowing instructions to flow from the backup pipeline to the regular pipeline following the flushing of the instructions younger than the exception detected in the regular pipeline. By maintaining a backup copy of the instructions issued to the regular pipeline, instructions may not need to be flushed from separate execution pipelines and re-fetched. As a result, one may complete the results of the execution units to the architected state out of order thereby allowing the completion point to vary among the different execution pipelines. | 03-19-2009 |
