Multiplies
Most multiply operations cannot forward their result early, except as the accumulate value for a
subsequent multiply. For a subsequent multiply accumulate the result is available one cycle
earlier than for all other uses of the result.
Certain multiplies require:
•
more than one cycle to execute
•
more than one pipeline issue to produce a result.
The multiplicand and multiplier are required as Early Regs because they are both required at the
end of the Iss stage.
Flag-setting multiplies followed by a conditional instruction interlock the conditional
instruction for one cycle, or two cycles if the instruction is a conditional multiply. Flag-setting
multiplies followed by a flag-setting instruction interlock the flag-setting instruction for one
cycle, unless the instruction is a flag-setting multiply in which case there is no interlock.
Table 14-9 shows the cycle timing behavior of example multiply instructions.
