Abstract
Methods and apparatus relating to zero-redundancy tag storage for bucketed allocators are described. In some embodiments, memory stores a memory page. The memory page includes a metadata page and a plurality of slots. The metadata page includes information corresponding to the plurality of slots. Decode circuitry decodes an instruction that includes a source operand. Execution circuitry executes the decoded instruction according to the source operand to load a first tag for a first slot of the plurality of slots in response to a memory access request directed at the first slot of the plurality of slots. The memory access request is allowed to proceed in response to a match between the first tag and a second tag of a pointer of the memory access request. The memory page stores a separate tag in proximity to each of the plurality of slots. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
