  • Publication number: 20220237123
    Abstract: Embodiments of an invention a processor architecture are disclosed. In an embodiment, a processor includes a decoder, an execution unit, a coherent cache, and an interconnect. The decoder is to decode an instruction to zero a cache line. The execution unit is to issue a write command to initiate a cache line sized write of zeros. The coherent cache is to receive the write command, to determine whether there is a hit in the coherent cache and whether a cache coherency protocol state of the hit cache line is a modified state or an exclusive state, to configure a cache line to indicate all zeros, and to issue the write command toward the interconnect. The interconnect is to, responsive to receipt of the write command, issue a snoop to each of a plurality of other coherent caches for which it must be determined if there is a hit.

  • Patent number: 10579378
    Abstract: An apparatus and method are described for executing instructions using a predicate register. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises: a register set including a predicate register to store a set of predicate condition bits, the predicate condition bits specifying whether results of a particular predicated instruction sequence are to be retained or discarded; and predicate execution logic to execute a first predicate instruction to indicate a start of a new predicated instruction sequence by copying a condition value from a processor control register in the register set to the predicate register. In a further embodiment, the predicate condition bits in the predicate register are to be shifted in response to the first predicate instruction to free space within the predicate register for the new condition value associated with the new predicated instruction sequence.

  • Patent number: 10489063
    Abstract: First elements of a dense vector to be multiplied with first elements of a first row of a sparse array may be determined. The determined first elements of the dense vector may be written into a memory. A dot product for the first elements of the sparse array and the first elements of the dense vector may be calculated in a plurality of increments by multiplying a subset of the first elements of the sparse array and a corresponding subset of the first elements of the dense vector. A sequence number may be updated after each increment is completed to identify a column number and/or a row number of the sparse array for which the dot product calculations have been completed.
