Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing an IF2FOR transformation are disclosed. In one embodiment, a first group of instructions include an IF-statement and one or more control dependent instructions. The first group of instructions are transformed into a second group of instructions if the first group of instructions meet one or more criteria. In one embodiment, the criteria includes the (1) IF-statement being part of a loop and (2) the control dependent instructions not having any inter-loop iteration dependency. The second group of instructions are executable to (1) store results of the IF-statement condition for a first number of iterations and (2) execute the control dependent instructions for a second number of iterations when the IF-statement condition evaluates to true.
