Abstract
Techniques for error correction in a processor include detecting an error in first data stored in a register. The method also includes generating an instruction to read the first data stored in the register, where the register is both a source register and a destination register of the instruction. The method further includes transmitting the first data to an execution unit, where the first data bypasses an issue queue. The method also includes decoding the instruction and correcting the error to generate corrected data and writing the corrected data to the destination register.
