Abstract: Embodiments include a method for temporary pipeline marking for processor error workarounds. The method includes monitoring an execution unit pipeline of a processor for an event associated with a programmable instruction operational code that is predetermined to cause a stuck state resulting in an errant instruction execution. The execution unit pipeline is marked for a workaround action based on detecting the event. A clearing action is triggered based on the marking, where the triggering is conditionally triggered by a next instruction in the execution unit pipeline having a same instruction type as the programmable instruction operational code. The marking of the pipeline is cleared based on the triggering of the clearing action, where the clearing action is a subsequent pipeline flush event based on the next instruction having the same instruction type reaching a same pipeline stage that results in a stuck state prior to completion of the next instruction.

Abstract: Managing execution of computer operations by determining that a computer resource targeted by a command's first operation is available, in a candidate processing record in a processing records schedule, to receive an instruction to perform the first operation, determining that a computer resource targeted by the command's second operation is available, in a processing record in the schedule at a processing offset relative to the candidate record, to receive an instruction to perform the second operation, the processing offset being an expected processing latency associated with the command, scheduling the computer resource targeted by the first operation to receive the instruction to perform the first operation when processing the candidate record in the schedule, and scheduling the computer resource targeted by the second operation to receive the instruction to perform the second operation when processing the processing record in the schedule at the processing offset relative to the candidate record.

Abstract: A method for processing commands in a directory-based computer memory management system includes receiving a command to perform an operation on data stored in a set of one or more computer memory locations associated with an entry in a directory of a computer memory, the entry is associated with an indicator for indicating whether the set of one or more computer memory locations is busy, a head tag, and a tail tag. The command is associated with a command tag and a predecessor tag, and checking the indicator to determine whether the set of one or more computer memory locations is busy.
