Abstract
An example system for speculative execution event counter checkpointing and restoring may include a plurality of symmetric cores, at least one of the symmetric cores to simultaneously process a plurality of threads and to perform out-of-order instruction processing for the plurality of threads; at least one shared cache circuit to be shared among two or more the of symmetric cores. The system may further include a memory controller to couple the symmetric cores to a system memory and a data communication interface to couple one or more of the cores to input/output devices. The system may further include event counter circuitry comprising: a plurality of event counters including programmable event counters and fixed event counters and one or more configuration registers to store configuration data to specify an event type to be counted by the programmable event counters, wherein at least one of the one or more configuration registers is to store configuration data for a plurality of the programmable event counters. The system may further include transactional memory circuitry to process transactional memory operations including load operations and store operations, the transactional memory circuitry to process a transaction begin instruction to indicate a start of a transactional execution region of a program, a transaction end instruction to indicate an end of the transactional execution region, and a transaction abort instruction to abort processing of the transactional execution region. The system may further include transaction checkpoint circuitry to store a processor state at the start of the transactional execution region of the program, the processor state including values of one or more of the event counters. The system may further include lock elision circuitry to cause critical sections of the program to execute as transactions on multiple threads without acquiring a lock, the lock elision circuitry to cause the critical sections to be re-executed non-speculatively using one or more locks in response to detecting a transaction failure.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
