How does the TLB identify a particular process? The TLB is a cache of mappings found in the page table It gets filled in as you go When you change which process is running, you change the page table (since now you need a different set of mappings), and you clear the TLB (so you don't have any old mappings that are only relevant to the previous process)
How is the size of TLB in Intels Sandy Bridge CPU determined? A TLB cache is a highly specialized CAM with a fixed layout, it is not a scratch memory with a general purpose layout Some TLB can handle more that one page size but those are trade-offs were the information is cached in a common format Having different TLBs handling different page sizes improves cache hits, just like having a DTLB and an ITLB
ARM11 Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) usage? - Stack Overflow A TLB is a cache of the page table Some processors allow direct access to the TLB, while knowing nothing about page tables (e g: MIPS), while others know about page tables, and internally use TLBs that the programmer mostly doesn't see (e g: x86)
performance - TLB misses vs cache misses? - Stack Overflow Could someone please explain the difference between a TLB (Translation lookaside buffer) miss and a cache miss? I believe I found out TLB refers to some sort of virtual memory address but I wasn't
Purpose of address-spaced identifiers(ASIDs) - Stack Overflow I am studying memory management strategies, and on section where they introduce Translation Look-aside Buffer (TLB) Some TLBs store address-space identifiers (ASIDs) in each TLB entry An ASID uniquely identifies each process and is used to provide address-space protection for that process
