Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for repacking of memory data. For at least one embodiment, data for a plurality of store instructions in a source code program is loaded from memory into the appropriate sub-location of a proxy storage location. The packed data is then written with a single instruction from the proxy storage location into contiguous memory locations.
