发明名称 Method and apparatus for accessing a cache with an effective address
摘要 A method and apparatus for accessing a processor cache. The method includes executing an access instruction in a processor core of the processor. The access instruction provides an untranslated effective address of data to be accessed by the access instruction. The method also includes determining whether a level one cache for the processor core includes the data corresponding to the effective address of the access instruction. The effective address of the access instruction is used without address translation to determine whether the level one cache for the processor core includes the data corresponding to the effective address. If the level one cache includes the data corresponding to the effective address, the data for the access instruction is provided from the level one cache.
