Abstract
Embodiments for fast perfect issue of dependent instructions in a distributed issue queue system. Producer information of a producer instruction is inserted in a lookup entry in a lookup table, the lookup entry being allocated to a register. It is determined that the register corresponding to the lookup entry is a source for a dependent instruction. Responsive to storing the dependent instruction in an issue queue, the producer information is stored in a back-to-back entry of a back-to-back wakeup table, the back-to-back entry corresponding to the dependent instruction. The producer instruction is issued which causes the producer information of the producer instruction to be sent to the back-to-back wakeup table. It is determined that there is a match between the producer information and the back-to-back entry for the dependent instruction, and the dependent instruction is caused to issue based on the match.
