Embodiment Construction
[0023] Embodiments of the invention relate to microprocessor architecture. More specifically, embodiments of the invention relate to register sharing techniques within microprocessors for multi-threaded instructions that facilitate mapping an optimal number of physical registers to a desired number of logical registers without incurring A lot of hardware overhead.
[0024] In at least one embodiment of the invention, a technique is used that incurs the hardware cost associated with the hard partition register sharing technique, but makes more registers available to another thread when one thread sleeps .
[0025] image 3 A computer system is shown in which at least one embodiment of the invention can be used. Processor 305 accesses data from cache memory 310 and main memory 315 . exist image 3 Shown in the processor 306 is an embodiment of the present invention. However, other embodiments of the invention may be implemented in other devices within the system, such as i...
