Question

In this exercise, we examine how data dependences affect execution in the basic 5-stage pipeline described in Section 4.5. Problems in this exercise refer to the following sequence of instructions:

                

  • or $t0, $s2, $t0
  • and $t0, $a0, $s3
  • lw $t5, 24($t0)
  • sw $t0, 12($s6)
  • sub $t3, $t0, $t5

 

Also, assuming the following cycle times for each of the options related to forwarding:

Without Forwarding

With Full Forwarding

With ALU-ALU Forwarding Only

220 ps

260 ps

250 ps

Assume there is no forwarding in this pipelined processor. Indicate hazards and add nop instructions to eliminate them.
