Abstract
PURPOSE:To improve the accuracy of a branch prediction and to improve a processing speed of a branch instruction, by predicting a condition code of a result of processing a floating point addition/subtraction instruction and a floating point comparison instruction by using a fixed point arithmetic unit, in parallel with processing a floating point arithmetic instruction by a floating point arithmetic unit. CONSTITUTION:The titled processor is provided with a fixed point arithmetic unit and a floating point arithmetic unit in parallel, and constituted so as to process a fixed point arithmetic instruction and a floating point arithmetic instruction by the respective units. Also, this processor is provided with a means for predicting a condition code of a result of processing of the floating point arithmetic instruction, by using the fixed point arithmetic unit. In such a way, in the floating point arithmetic instruction, except the case when an underflow is generated in a result of processing of an addition/subtraction instruction and the result becomes '0', a condition code of a result of processing of a floating point addition/subtraction instruction, and a floating point comparison instruction can be exactly predicted, and a branch instruction which follows it up can be executed at a high speed.
