Why aren't out of order CPUs troublesome?

问题 i've recently learned about out-of-order execution CPUs in this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out-of-order_execution There is something that i can't quite understand. Why aren't these kind of CPUs troublesome? I mean, if i have instructions executing out of order, even if they apply to different data, wont i be able to reach a situation where data is not updated according to the program order? I mean, if i have something like: x = 1; y = 2; x = x+y; print x; print y; what prevents the

InstallShield Template Summary Value AMD64 vs Intel64 vs x64

问题 I am setting up my InstallShield to install my package as 64 bit (into Program Files not Program Files x86) by. My processor is: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU InstallShield => General Information => Summary Information Stream => Template Summary From Intel32;1033 to Intel64;1033 And it gives me the general error message: This installation package is not supported by this processor Then I set the value to: Amd64;1033 or x64;1033 And it magically work. But weird thing is, my processor is Intel,

How branch predictor and branch target buffer co-exist?

问题 My question is how they co-exist and work together in modern CPU architecture? 回答1: You've got it slightly reversed. On every fetch you index into your branch predictor, which tells you whether the instruction that you have just received will be decoded into a taken branch. If not, you fetch the next sequential address. But if your branch predictor says that it will be a taken branch, you don't know which instruction to fetch next, since you haven't decoded this instruction yet. So in order

Does the compiler actually produce Machine Code?

感情迁移 提交于 2020-12-30 02:18:29
问题 I've been reading that in most cases (like gcc) the compiler reads the source code in a high level language and spits out the corresponding machine code. Now, machine code by definition is the code that a processor can understand directly. So, machine code should be only machine (processor) dependent and OS independent. But this is not the case. Even if 2 different operating systems are running on the same processor, I can not run the same compiled file (.exe for Windows or .out for Linux) on
