Abstract: Embodiments of apparatuses and methods for variable-length instruction steering to instruction decode clusters are disclosed. In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a decode cluster and chunk steering circuitry. The decode cluster includes multiple instruction decoders. The chunk steering circuitry is to break a sequence of instruction bytes into a plurality of chunks, create a slice from a one or more of the plurality of chunks based on one or more indications of a number of instructions in each of the one or more of the plurality of chunks, wherein the slice has a variable size and includes a plurality of instructions, and steer the slice to the decode cluster.
