Chapter 3.5, Problem 3.8PP
Program Plan Intro
Unary and Binary Operations:
- The details of unary operations includes:
- The single operand serves as both source as well as destination.
- It can either be a register or a memory location.
- The instruction “incq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be incremented.
- The instruction “decq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be decremented.
- The details of binary operations includes:
- The first operand denotes the source.
- The second operand serves as both source as well as destination.
- The first operands can whichever be an immediate value, memory location or register.
- The second operands can whichever be a register or a memory location.
Example:
The example for a “subq” instruction is shown below:
subq %rax, %rdx
Here, “%rax” and “%rdx” denotes registers. The given code decrements register “%rdx” by value in “%rax”.

- A program has the following breakdown: 25% ld (50% of them directly followed by a dependent instruction),25% sd, 30% r_type, 20% beq (80% of them are taken. Branches are calculated in the third cycle. What is the average CPI of the program when run on the pipelined RISC V implementation in the textbook?arrow_forwardSection 1.0 cites as a pitfall the utilization of a subset of the performace equation as a performance metric. To illustrate this, consider the following two processors. P1 has a clock rate of 4GHz, average CPI of 0.9, and requires the execution of 5.0E9 instructions. P2 has a clock rate of 3GHz, an average CPI of 0.75, and requires the execution of 1.0E9 instructions. (1) A common fallacy is to use MIPS to compare the performace of two different processors, and consider that the processor with the largest MIPS has the largest performance. Check if this is true for P1 and P2. (2) Another common performace figure is MFLOPS, defined as MFLOPS = No. FP operations / (execution time x 1E6) but this figure has the same problems as MIPS. Assume that 40% of the instructions executed on both P1 and P2 are floating-point instructions.

- The importance of having a good branch predictor depends on how often conditional branches are executed. Together with branch predictor accuracy, this will determine how much time is spent stalling due to mispredicted branches.
