Abstract
There is provided an apparatus comprising decoder circuitry to decode store instructions and load instructions. The apparatus includes decoder circuitry to decode store instructions and load instructions. The apparatus also includes prediction circuitry to store load predictions and store predictions. Each load prediction is indexed based on a program counter value of one of the load instructions and comprises information indicative of a predicted store instruction predicted to store data to memory to be subsequently loaded from the memory by that load instruction. Each store prediction is indexed based on the program counter value of one of the store instructions and comprises information indicative of the store instruction being predicted to be indicated as the predicted store instruction in at least one of the plurality of load predictions. Conditions for maintaining the load predictions are different from conditions for maintaining the store predictions.
