摘要
A processor includes an execution unit to execute instructions to load indices from an array of indices, optionally perform scatters, and prefetch (to a specified cache) contents of target locations for future scatters from arbitrary locations in memory. The execution unit includes logic to load, for each target location of a scatter or prefetch operation, an index value to be used in computing the address in memory for the operation. The index value may be retrieved from an array of indices identified for the instruction. The execution unit includes logic to compute the addresses based on the sum of a base address specified for the instruction, the index value retrieved for the location, and a prefetch offset (for prefetch operations), with optional scaling. The execution unit includes logic to retrieve data elements from contiguous locations in a source vector register specified for the instruction to be scattered to the memory.
