Abstract

The existing branch prediction models cant predict the behaviors of various instructions in the processor accurately, which leads to the limitation of processing efficiency. Therefore, this paper proposed two hybrid prediction solutions, which aimed to combine multiple branch prediction models to improve prediction accuracy and processor execution efficiency. This paper transferred the prediction results of TAGE branch prediction model and BATAGE branch prediction model to the Hybrid model. In the prediction phase, the Hybrid model selected the prediction results of the best-performing branch prediction model based on the historical performance of TAGE and BATAGE. In the update phase, the Hybrid model updated the saturation counter of the entries that needed to be updated according to the designed hybrid prediction strategy. Experiments on 440 test programs provided by the CBP software simulation platform show that the prediction error rates of both hybrid prediction solutions are lower than those of many of the latest mainstream branch prediction models. This study provides an effective solution to the problem of predicting all command mode behaviors. In the branch instruction prediction of real CPU, this research provides some practical value.
