Abstract
Apparatus for detecting move instructions in which only registers are involved. The apparatus generates signals to disable the inclusion of any SIB byte, displacement bytes and immediate bytes from the instruction length when a move instruction which only requires processor registers is encountered. The apparatus uses the generated signals for instruction length calculation and instruction prefetch pointer generation.
