Abstract

The present invention relates to a microprocessor and a method of performing fused compound arithmetic operations within the microprocessor. The microprocessor is configured for unchained and chained modes that incorporate split execution of compound arithmetic operations. In these two modes of split execution, the first instruction execution unit executes only the first part of the fused compound arithmetic operation and produces its intermediate result, and the second instruction execution unit receives the intermediate result and executes the second part of the fused compound arithmetic operation. section to produce the final result. In the unchained mode, execution is achieved by dispatching individual split-execution microinstructions to the first instruction execution unit and the second instruction execution unit. In chained mode, a single split-execution microinstruction is dispatched to a first instruction execution unit and a chained control signal or signal group is sent to a second instruction execution unit so that the second instruction execution unit operates without an instruction Perform the second part of the fused compound arithmetic operation to implement the execution.
