Abstract
An apparatus comprises processing circuitry to perform data processing in response to instructions; and a branch predictor to predict a branch outcome for a given branch instruction as one of taken and not-taken, based on branch prediction state information indexed based on at least one property of the given branch instruction. In a static branch prediction mode of operation, the branch predictor predicts the branch outcome based on static values of the branch prediction state information set independent of actual branch outcomes of branch instructions which are executed by the processing circuitry while in the static branch prediction mode. The static values of the branch prediction state information are programmable.
