Multithreaded hardware systems and methods are disclosed. One embodiment of a system may comprise a multithreaded processor comprising a register file having N hardware threads, where N is an integer greater than or equal to one, and an offline storage structure having M hardware threads, where M is an integer greater than or equal to one. The multithreaded processor system may further comprise a thread control that transfers register values associated with at least one of the N hardware threads to registers of at least one of the M hardware threads and transfers register values of at least of one of the M hardware threads to registers of at least one of the N hardware threads.
A multithreaded processor system comprising:
A multithreaded register file architecture comprising:
A register file system having a register file with at least one hardware thread, the system comprising:
A method for storing architected states associated with registers of a register file, the method comprising:
