Latest Patents
One of Mikulis' latest patents is titled "Collapsed address translation with multiple page sizes." This invention focuses on a computer system that supports virtualization by maintaining multiple address spaces. Each guest operating system utilizes guest virtual addresses (GVAs), which are translated to guest physical addresses (GPAs). A hypervisor, responsible for managing one or more guest operating systems, translates GPAs to root physical addresses (RPAs). The invention features a merged translation lookaside buffer (MTLB) that caches translations between multiple addressing domains, enabling faster address translation and memory access. The MTLB can be logically addressed as multiple different caches and can be reconfigured to allocate different spaces to each logical cache. Additionally, a collapsed TLB provides an extra cache that stores collapsed translations derived from the MTLB.
