Are you sure about stores?
From Power7 paper (B. Sinharoy et al)
So, if it's not cracking then pretty close equivalent of it.

Are you sure about stores?
From Power7 paper (B. Sinharoy et al)
The STAG corresponds to a pointer to the store-reorder-queue (SRQ) entry assigned to a store instruction. This is also used to match the store data instruction with the store address instruction in the SRQ.
The 64-bit VSU store instructions are split into an address generation (AGEN) operation and a data steering operation during instruction dispatch
Instructions are issued to the LSU out of order, with a bias toward the oldest operations first. Stores are issued twice; an AGEN operation is issued to the LSU, whereas a data steering operation is issued to the FXU or the VSU.
So, if it's not cracking then pretty close equivalent of it.
