Systems and methods for configuring load/store execution units
Systems and methods are disclosed for multi-threading computer systems. In a computer system executing multiple program threads in a processing unit, a first load/store execution unit is configured to handle instructions from a first program thread and a second load/store execution unit is configured to handle instructions from a second program thread. When the computer system executing a single program thread, the first and second load/store execution units are reconfigured to handle instructions from the single program thread, and a Level 1 (L1) data cache is reconfigured with a first port to communicate with the first load/store execution unit and a second port to communicate with the second load/store execution unit.
