ABSTRACT:
A processing system includes memory management software responsive to changes in a page table to consolidate a run of contiguous page table entries into a page table entry having a larger memory page size. The memory management software determines whether the run of contiguous page table entries may be cached using the larger memory page size in an entry of a translation lookaside buffer. The translation lookaside buffer may be a MIPS-like TLB in which multiple page table entries are cached in each TLB entry.
