Abstract

System and techniques for creating a single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) processor predicate based on stride length are described herein. When an instruction for a SIMD processor is received, and the instruction has a specified stride length, a predicate memory can be read to obtain a current predicate. A new predicate can be determined based on the stride length and the current predicate. The new predicate is written to the predicate memory. When an instance of the instruction is executed by the SIMD processor, the execution is performed on a subset of data loaded into the SIMD processor based on the new predicate read from the predicate memory.
