Abstract
An apparatus translates a set of logical addresses to a system addresses where the set of logical addresses includes virtual and real addresses which map to the same system address. An address mechanism provides a requesting field for indicating when a requesting logical address is virtual or when a requesting logical address is real. An address translator translates logical addresses to system addresses. A translation buffer stores translation information for associating logical addresses with system addresses. The translation buffer includes means for storing a resident field for indicating if stored translation information associates a virtual address with a system address, a real address with a system address, or both a real address and a virtual address with a system address.
