Abstract

A processor of an aspect includes decode logic to receive a first instruction and to determine that the first instruction is to be emulated. The processor also includes emulation mode aware post-decode instruction processor logic coupled with the decode logic. The emulation mode aware post-decode instruction processor logic is to process one or more control signals decoded from an instruction. The instruction is one of a set of one or more instructions used to emulate the first instruction. The one or more control signals are to be processed differently by the emulation mode aware post-decode instruction processor logic when in an emulation mode than when not in the emulation mode. Other apparatus are also disclosed as well as methods and systems.
