Hi all,
In LSQUnit template class, methods executeLoad and executeStore, when
checking for memory dependency violations, the condition used in the first one
is:
if (loadQueue[load_idx]->effAddrValid &&
(loadQueue[load_idx]->effAddr >> 8) ==
(inst->effAddr >> 8)) {
And in the second one:
if (loadQueue[load_idx]->effAddrValid &&
(loadQueue[load_idx]->effAddr >> 8) ==
(store_inst->effAddr >> 8)) {
My doubt is about the right-shift of 8 bits. If memory access is at most to a
8 bytes value (like a 64 bits integer), why not right-shift 3 bits instead of 8?
Thanks,
opflucker
