  • Vector completion mask handling
    Patent number: 8510536
    Abstract: Techniques for vector completion mask (VCM) handling are provided. A data structure includes a mask field for each operand of a particular operation. A processor attempts to execute the operation with multiple operands, which are identified in the data structure by the mask fields. If operands are successfully retrieved for execution with the operation, then the corresponding mask field within the data structure is cleared. The processor can reset if any field remains set within the data structure and can re-process the operation with operands that were not previously handled with the operation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 13, 2013
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
