Abstract
A technique for operating a processor includes translating, using an associated translation lookaside buffer, a first virtual address into a first physical address through a first entry number in the translation lookaside buffer. The technique also includes translating, using the translation lookaside buffer, a second virtual address into a second physical address through a second entry number in the translation lookaside buffer. The technique further includes, in response to the first entry number being the same as the second entry number, determining that the first and second virtual addresses point to the same physical address in memory and reference the same data.
