A processor is provided and includes a core that is configured to perform a decode operation on a multi-instruction packet comprising multiple instructions. The decode operation includes receiving the multi-instruction packet that includes first and second instructions. The first instruction includes a primary portion at a fixed first location and a secondary portion. The second instruction includes a primary portion at a fixed second location between the primary portion of the first instruction and the secondary portion of the first instruction. An operational code portion of the primary portion of each of the first and second instructions is accessed and decoded. An instruction packet including the primary and secondary portions of the first instruction is created, and a second instruction packet including the primary portion of the second instruction is created. The first and second instructions packets are dispatched to respective first and second functional units.

An instruction processing device and an instruction processing method are disclosed. The instruction processing device includes: an instruction boundary prediction unit including circuitry configured to acquire an instruction packet of a variable-length instruction set and to add instruction prediction information to a plurality of instruction meta-fields in the instruction packet; and an instruction pipeline structure comprising an instruction fetch unit including an instruction boundary determination unit including circuitry configured to determine instruction boundary information according to the instruction prediction information to obtain one or more instructions in the instruction packet.

The present disclosure provides new and innovative systems and methods for processing out-of-order events. In an example, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining data, committing the obtained data to a fixed-size storage pool, the fixed-size storage pool including a plurality of slots and a pool index including a fixed-length array, by acquiring a slot in the plurality of slots, locking the acquired slot, storing the obtained data in the acquired slot, updating the pool index for the storage pool by updating an element in the array corresponding to the acquired slot, the element storing an indication of the obtained data, and unlocking the acquired slot, and transmitting an indication that the data is available.

A processor includes a register file and control logic that detects multiple different sets of sequential zero bits of a register in the register file, wherein each of the multiple different sets has a bit length that corresponds to a partial instruction width and operates at a first partial instruction width or a second partial instruction width with the register file depending on number of sets of zero bits detected in the register. In certain examples, the control logic causes operating at first instruction width that avoids merging of a first bit length of data in the register and operating at the second instruction width that avoids merging of a second bit length of data in the register. In some examples, a register rename map table incudes multiple zero bits that identify the detected multiple different sets of bits of sequential zeros.

A processor includes a register file having a plurality of register file addresses, a processing unit, configured to perform processing in accordance with a configuration defined by information stored in the register file, and an instruction sequencer. The instruction sequencer is configured to control the processing unit by retrieving a sequence of instructions from a memory, in which each instruction includes an opcode, and a subset of the instructions includes a data portion. For each instruction in the sequence of instructions, the instruction sequencer performs an action defined by the opcode. The action for the subset of the opcodes includes writing the data portion to a register file address defined by the opcode. The sequence of instructions includes variable length instructions.

A synaptic coprocessor may include a memory configured to store a plurality of Very Long Data Words, each as a test Very Long Data Word (VLDW) having a length in the range of about one thousand bits to one million or more bits and containing encoded information that is distributed across the length of the VLDW. A processor generates search terms and a processing logic unit receives a test VLDW from the memory, receives a search term from the processor, and computes a Boolean inner product between the search term and the test VLDW read from memory indicative of the measure of similarity between the test VLDW and the search term. Optionally, buffers within logic circuits of processing pipelines may receive the test VLDWs.

The invention relates to the technical field of a processor, in particular to a method for parallel extracting instructions and a readable storage medium. The method generates a valid vector of fetched instructions according to the end position vector s_mark_end of the instruction, and performs parallel decoding of instructions at each position, calculation of instruction address and branch instruction target address operation through logical “AND” and logical “OR” operations. Ultimately, multiple instructions are fetched in parallel. The present invention is a method for generating a valid vector of fetching instructions according to the end position vector s_mark_end of the instruction, and extracting multiple instructions in parallel through logical “AND” and logical “OR” operations. The invention can extract a plurality of instructions in parallel, there is no serial dependence relationship between each instruction, and the time sequence is easy to converge, so a higher main frequency can be obtained.
