Abstract
A processing system includes a system interconnect, a processor coupled to communicate with other components in the processing system through the system interconnect, distributed general purpose registers (GPRs) in the processing system wherein a first subset of the distributed GPRs is located in the processor and a second subset of the distributed GPRs is located in the processing system and external to the processor, and a first set of conductors directly connected between the processor and the second subsets of the distributed GPRs. An instruction execution pipeline in the processor accesses any register in the first and second subsets of the distributed GPRs as part of the processor's GPRs during instruction execution in the processor, in which the second subset of the distributed GPRs is accessed through the first conductor.
