Register X and Y
Pipelines
Chapter 2
The I nte ger X exec utio n unit can operat e on a ll AL U
operations, multiplies, divides (signed and unsigned), shifts,
and rotates.
The Integer Y execution unit can operate on the basic word and
doubleword ALU operations — ADD, AND, CMP, OR, SUB,
XOR, zero-extend, and sign-extend operands.
Table 1. Execution Latency and Throughput of Execution Units
The functional units that exec ut e MMX and 3DNow!
instructions share pipeline control with the Integer X and
Integer Y units.
The register X and Y functional units are attached to the issue
bus for the register X execution pipeline or the issue bus for the
register Y execution pipeline or both. Each register pipeline
has dedicated resources that consist of an integer execution
unit and an MMX ALU execution unit, therefore allowing
superscalar operation on integer and MMX instructions. In
addition, both the X and Y issue buses are connected to the
3DNow! ALU, the MMX/3DNow! multiplier, and MMX shifter,
which allows the appropriate RISC86 operation to be issued
through either bus. Figure 6 on page 20 shows the details of the
X and Y register pipelines.
