Abstract

A microprocessor implemented method for resolving dependencies for a load instruction in a load store queue (LSQ) is disclosed. The method comprises initiating a computation of a virtual address corresponding to the load instruction in a first clock cycle. It also comprises transmitting early calculated lower address bits of the virtual address to a load store queue (LSQ) in the same cycle as the initiating. Finally, it comprises performing a partial match in the LSQ responsive to and using the lower address bits to find a prior aliasing store, wherein the prior aliasing store stores to a same address as the load instruction.
