Multi-table Signature Prefetch

Techniques are disclosed relating to signature-based instruction prefetching. In some embodiments, processor pipeline circuitry executes a computer program that includes control transfer instructions, such that the execution follows a taken path through the computer program. First signature prefetch table circuitry indicates prefetch addresses for signatures generated using a first signature generation technique and second signature prefetch table circuitry indicates prefetch addresses for signatures generated using a second, different signature generation technique. Signature prefetch circuitry, in response to a prefetch training event, determines a first signature according to the first technique and a second signature according to the second technique and selects one but not both of the first and second signature prefetch tables to train using the first signature or the second signature.
