Abstract

The disclosure provides a device for implementing address buffer management of a processor, including: an assembler configured to perform operations to obtain intermediate values when the assembler encodes a set instruction for an address automatic-increment value and boundary values, and to encapsulate the intermediate values into the set instruction for the address automatic-increment value and boundary values; and a processor configured to determine, according to the intermediate values, whether to perform the address automatic-increment operation or the address automatic-decrement operation, so as to achieve the address buffer management. The disclosure also provides a method for implementing address buffer management of a processor, including: a processor decodes a set instruction for an address automatic-increment value and boundary values to obtain intermediate values, and determines, according to the intermediate values, whether to perform the address automatic-increment operation or the address automatic-decrement operation when the processor performs a load or store instruction, so as to realize the address buffer management. Through the device and the method of the discl…
