Abstract
A method of controlling write operations to a non-renamed register space includes receiving a write operation to a given register within the non-renamed register space. The method also includes determining whether a pending write operation to the given register exists. In response to determining that the pending write operation to the given register exists, the method includes blocking the write operation to the given register from being scheduled. However, in response to determining that the pending write operation to the given register does not exist, the method includes allowing the write operation to the given register to be scheduled. Further, if the pending write operation to the given register does not exist, the method includes allowing a subsequent write operation to a different register within the non-renamed register space to be scheduled.
