Hi Samira, Implementing x86 OoO support will take quite a bit of effort because of the complexity of the instruction set, so it’s something that will definitely take a couple of people to complete. Several of the groups that use Flexus met at MICRO last December and decided that x86 OoO support is something that we intend to add in the future. We have a meeting scheduled for Feb 11th where we will make a decision and a road map in this regard. If you are interested in contributing to this effort, please let us know.

From the Documentation and makefiles I get that it has OoO capability only for v9. Is there any chance of having OoO for x86? If I decide to put the OoO simulation for x86, how much work it will be? Thank you Samira
