Abstract:
An instruction processing circuit for a processor, where the instruction processing circuit is adapted to provide one or more sequence of operations, based on one or more sequence of instructions, to an execution circuit of the processor. The instruction processing circuit includes a cache circuit operable to store a second type of sequence of operations that represents at least a portion of a first type of sequence of operations, where the sequence of operations of the second type includes at most one control transfer that, when present, ends a first portion of a sequence of instructions, where the cache circuit is further configured to store a third type of sequence of operations that represents a set of at least two sequences of operations.
