Abstract

Performing a read operation and a clear operation in a late select array in the same clock cycle, including: receiving, for a late select array stored in memory of a processor, a read operation instruction and a clear operation instruction; executing both the read operation instruction and the clear operation instruction in a single clock cycle, including: loading an entry of the late select array corresponding to a read address included in the read operation instruction; generating a hit result for the read operation instruction based on the entry, wherein the hit result indicates whether a cache stores valid data corresponding to the read operation instruction; clearing an entry of the late select array corresponding to a write address included in the clear operation instruction; and providing an output of the read operation instruction based on a comparison of the read address included in the read operation instruction and the write address included in the clear operation instruction.
