Why? It's very intentionally not MIPSy. ARMv8 removes anything that may dictate any microarchitecture decisions, while MIPS exposes it in an ISA (delay slots and all that). Even predication had been killed for this reason (it's not good for OoO anyway).
- _yosefk 11y agoYeah, but * mips didnt have predication to begin with * arm didnt have delay slots to begin with * and then afaik 64b arm uses more registers and removes shifter operands So definitely more mipsy.
