Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing efficient loop instruction execution using bit vector scanning is presented. A bit vector is scanned, each bit in the bit vector representing at least one of a feature and a conditional status. The presence of a bit of said bit vector set to a first state is detected. The bit is set to a second state. An instruction address for a routine corresponding to said bit set to a first state is looked up using a bit position of said bit that was set to a first state. The routine is executed. The scanning, said detecting, said setting and said using are repeated until there are no remaining bits of said bit vector set to said first state.
