Abstract
A digital processor, method, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium are described, and include a load pipeline operative to access a data content and convert the data content into a load result. The digital processor also includes a value prediction check circuit that is operative to access a speculative content, determine a predicted value from the speculative content, and determine a masked value by masking the data content with a data mask. The masked value is compared to the predicted value, and an action associated with the load result is commanded based upon the comparing of the masked value and the predicted value.
