Low-synchronization translation lookaside buffer consistency in large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors
1989
Proceedings of the twelfth ACM symposium on Operating systems principles - SOSP '89
Operating systems for most current shared-memory multiprocessors must maintain translation lookasidc buffer (TTB) consistency across processors. A processor that changes a shared page table must flush outdated mapping information from its own '1'1 ,R, and it must force the other processors using the page table to do so as well. Published algorithms for maintaining Tl,f? consistency on some popular comtncrcial multiprocessors incur excessively high synchronization costs. We present an efficient
