APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A MULTIPLE PAGE SIZE TRANSLATION LOOKASIDE BUFFER (TLB) |
| 摘要 |
An apparatus and method for implementing a multiple page size translation lookaside buffer (TLB). For example, a method according to one embodiment comprises: reading a first group of bits and a second group of bits from a linear address; determining whether the linear address is associated with a large page size or a small page size; identifying a first cache set using the first group of bits if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache set using the second group of bits if the linear address is associated with a second page size; and identifying a first cache way if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache way if the linear address is associated with a second page size. |

1. A method comprising:
reading a first group of bits and a second group of bits from a linear address; determining whether the linear address is associated with a large page size or a small page size; identifying a first cache set using the first group of bits if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache set using the second group of bits if the linear address is associated with a second page size; and identifying a first cache way if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache way if the linear address is associated with a second page size. |
