Abstract
Disclosed techniques enable processors that are capable of performing a wide range of vector operations. A processor can support multiple types of instructions. The instructions can include one or more operands, and the one or more operands can include different data types. An A-type instruction can have dependencies on a B-type instruction. An A-type instruction includes a vector instruction. A B-type instruction includes an integer instruction or a floating-point instruction. A datapath is provided to enable intermediate results from a B-type instruction to be supplied to the A-type instruction on which it depends, without utilizing register file resources, such as general-purpose register (GPR) register resources. Vector instruction performance is thereby enabled without the additional resources used with GPR register access.
