Abstract: A predicated-loop-terminating branch instruction controls, based on whether a loop termination condition is satisfied, whether the processing circuitry should process a further iteration of a predicated loop body or process a following instruction. If at least one unnecessary iteration of the predicated loop body is processed following a mispredicted-non-termination branch misprediction when the loop termination condition is mispredicted as unsatisfied for a given iteration when it should have been satisfied, processing of the at least one unnecessary iteration of the predicated loop body is predicated to suppress an effect of the at least one unnecessary iteration.

Abstract: The spring wire clip fastens fence wire to T-posts. The clip is constructed from hardened high carbon spring steel and has a geometry that allows the clip to be installed with no tools. The middle of the clip has a shape complementary to the T-post spine, typically a “V” shape, such that the clip wraps around the spine and the two ends extend laterally. Each end has a curl that can engage the fence wire on either side of the T-post. The clips can be installed five times faster than with standard twist-type clips and can be repositioned, or reused, as the attachment is not permanent.
