Abstract
A method and apparatus for selecting a trace in a program and scheduling a consume signal instruction in the trace according to a only a dependency in the trace.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- selecting a trace in a program;
- and
- scheduling a consume signal instruction in the trace according to a only a dependency in the trace, wherein the consume signal instruction is an instruction that waits for a signal and clears the signal once the signal is asserted.
An article of manufacture, comprising
- a machine-accessible medium including data that, when accessed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- selecting a trace in a program;
- and
- scheduling a consume signal instruction in the trace according to a only a dependency in the trace, wherein the consume signal instruction is an instruction that waits for a signal and clears the signal once the signal is asserted.
1 more element
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory including machine executable instructions comprising a first consume signal instruction scheduled in a trace of program according to a only a dependency in the trace, wherein the first consume signal instruction is an instruction that waits for a signal and clears the signal once the signal is asserted;
- and
- a network processor coupled to the memory to receive and execute the instructions.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
