Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to manage bypassing of a first cache are disclosed. In one such method, a load instruction having an expected latency greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold is identified. A request is then made to schedule the identified load instruction to have a perdetermined latency. The software program is then scheduled. An actual latency associated with the load instruction in the scheduled software program is then compared to the predetermined latency. If the actual latency is greater than or equal to the predetermined latency, the load instruction is marked to bypass the first cache.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for providing compiler transformation of code using regions with simplified data and control flow and value specialization are described. In one embodiment, the method includes identifying in the code a plurality of potential candidates for value specialization, selecting a group of candidates from the plurality of potential candidates based on a value profile associated with each potential candidate, and determining specialized data for each selected candidate using a corresponding value profile. The method further includes forming a plurality of optimized regions based on corresponding specialized data. Each optimized region includes one or more selected candidates.
