  • Apparatus for predicate calculation in processor instruction set
    Patent number: 9652242
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for calculating flag bits is disclosed. The flag bits may be used in a processor utilizing branch predication. More particularly, the apparatus and method may be used to calculate a predicate that can be used by a branch unit to evaluate whether a branch is to be taken. In one embodiment, the apparatus is coupled to receive a condition code associated with an instruction, and flag bits generated responsive to execution of the instruction. The condition code is indicative of a condition to be checked resulting from execution of the instruction. The apparatus may then provide an indication of whether the condition is true.
