Exception Processing
The following pipeline table shows the first case in Example 5-17. ES0 is a JMP with a minimum cycle
count of three. ES1 and ES2 are not change-of-flow instructions. And, I1 is the first instruction at the
exception vector address. The exception request is initiated in cycle 4.
