Abstract
A system for processing instructions with extended results includes a first instruction execution unit having a first result bus for execution of processor instructions. The system further includes a second instruction execution unit having a second result bus for execution of processor instructions. The first instruction execution unit is configured to selectively send a portion of results calculated by the first instruction execution unit to the second instruction execution unit during prosecution of a processor instruction if the second instruction execution unit is not used for executing the processor instruction and if the received processor instruction produces a result having a data width greater than the width of the first result bus. The second instruction execution unit is configured to receive the portion of results calculated by the first instruction execution unit and put the received results on the second results bus.
