Abstract

In register renaming circuitry architectural registers specified in instructions are mapped to physical registers using a mapping table. Operations to be performed with respect to the physical registers are generated in dependence on the instructions and on the mapping table entries. When the mapping table has a mapping of a first instruction destination physical register for a first instruction destination architectural register specified in a first instruction, a second instruction specifying the first instruction destination architectural register as a second instruction source architectural register causes an adapted second operation to be generated corresponding to the second instruction using at least one first instruction source physical register as at least one second instruction source physical register. The adapted second operation incorporates a first operation corresponding to the first instruction.
