5.7 Floating Point Unit
The floating-point unit implements double-precision and single-precision operations. The
unit is IEEE-754 compatible.
Features
:
•
MIPS III floating point instructions
•
High performance double-precision floating point unit tightly coupled to the C790
•
Supports double-precision and single-precision formats as defined in the IEEE-
754 specifications
•
Compatible with the TX49 FPU
•
No hardware support for denormalized numbers
5.8 Performance
Monitor
The performance monitor provides the means for gathering statistical information about the
internal events of the C790 and its pipeline during program execution. The statistics
gathered during program execution aid in tuning the performance of hardware and software
systems based on the processor core.
The performance monitor consists of one control register and two counters. The control
register controls the functions of the monitor while the counters count the number of events
specified by the control register.
Features:
•
Two performance counter registers
•
Can count over twenty different events within the C790
•
Counting can be selectively enabled in User, Supervisor, Kernel, and Exception
modes
