Abstract

Disclosed is an address translation system. The apparatus includes a memory management unit (MMU) that is operable to receive a translation request for an original address and translate the original address to a translated address as a second-level address translation service (ATS). The apparatus also includes an address translator having an associated cache to store the original address and the first translated address. The address translator is to translate memory addresses as a first-level address translation service (ATS). The address translator determines whether the transaction is to be processed using either the first-level ATS or the second-level ATS. The address translator translates a current memory address of the transaction to a current translated address using the first-level ATS or the second-level ATS based on the determination, The address translator also dispatches the transaction with the current translated address to a memory device where it may be further processed.
