  // This assumes that all writes fully update both super and sub registers.

  // introduce constraints on the number of mappings that can be created.
  // For example, the maximum number of registers that are available for
  // register renaming purposes may default to the size of the register file.

// \brief Implements the hardware dispatch logic.
//
// This class is responsible for the dispatch stage, in which instructions are
// dispatched in groups to the Scheduler.  An instruction can be dispatched if
// functional units are available.
// To be more specific, an instruction can be dispatched to the Scheduler if:
//  1) There are enough entries in the reorder buffer (implemented by class
//     RetireControlUnit) to accomodate all opcodes.
//  2) There are enough temporaries to rename output register operands.
//  3) There are enough entries available in the used buffered resource(s).
//
// The number of micro opcodes that can be dispatched in one cycle is limited by
// the value of field 'DispatchWidth'. A "dynamic dispatch stall" occurs when
// processor resources are not available (i.e. at least one of the
// abovementioned checks fails). Dispatch stall events are counted during the
// entire execution of the code, and displayed by the performance report when
// flag '-verbose' is specified.
//
// If the number of micro opcodes of an instruction is bigger than
// DispatchWidth, then it can only be dispatched at the beginning of one cycle.
// The DispatchUnit will still have to wait for a number of cycles (depending on
// the DispatchWidth and the number of micro opcodes) before it can serve other
// instructions.

  /// * For dynamic dispatch stalls, the "DS_" prefix is followed by the

  ///   that register renaming couldn't find enough spare registers in the
  ///   register file).
