Storing in other queue when reservation station instruction queue reserved for immediate source operand instruction execution unit is full

摘要

A processing apparatus includes an execution unit which performs computation on two operand inputs each being selectable between read data from a register and an immediate value. The processing apparatus also includes another execution unit which performs computation on two operand inputs, one of which is selectable between read data from a register and an immediate value, and the other of which is an immediate value. A control unit determines, based on a received instruction specifying a computation on two operands, whether each of the two operands specifies read data from a register or an immediate value. Depending on the determination result, the control unit causes one of the execution units to execute the computation specified by the received instruction.
