Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) TLB is onw of the important modules to enhance memory access performance. Generally, increasing the number of TLB entries contributes TLB hit rate and performance improvement. However, MIPS32 ISA limits the number of TLB entries to 64. This paper proposes mechanism to increase TLB entries without breaking binary compatibility. Our approach analyzes executing code related to TLB access dynamically, and behaves like 64-entry TLB. According to our simulation results, our approach can improve TLB hit rate without breaking binary compatibility.
