Abstract
A mechanism for efficient software cache accessing with handle reuse is provided. The mechanism groups references in source code into a reference stream with the reference stream having a size equal to or less than a size of a software cache line. The source code is transformed into optimized code by modifying the source code to include code for performing at most two cache lookup operations for the reference stream to obtain two cache line handles. Moreover, the transformation involves inserting code to resolve references in the reference stream based on the two cache line handles. The optimized code may be output for generation of executable code.
