Abstract
Managing a divided load reorder queue including storing load instruction data for a load instruction in an expanded LRQ entry in the LRQ; launching the load instruction from the expanded LRQ entry; determining that the load instruction is in a finished state; moving a subset of the load instruction data from the expanded LRQ entry to a compact LRQ entry in the LRQ, wherein the compact LRQ entry is smaller than the expanded LRQ entry; and removing the load instruction data from the expanded LRQ entry.
