  • Processor having adaptive pipeline with latency reduction logic that selectively executes instructions to reduce latency
    Patent number: 11645083
    Abstract: A system and method for reducing pipeline latency. In one embodiment, a processing system includes a processing pipeline. The processing pipeline includes a plurality of processing stages. Each stage is configured to further processing provided by a previous stage. A first of the stages is configured to perform a first function in a pipeline cycle. A second of the stages is disposed downstream of the first of the stages, and is configured to perform, in a pipeline cycle, a second function that is different from the first function. The first of the stages is further configured to selectably perform the first function and the second function in a pipeline cycle, and bypass the second of the stages.
