caching - Fully associative and Set Associative TLB operations compared to cache -
i going through mmu code arm processor(armv7). have made use of associative , set associative tlb. aware of implementation of cache using method. read tlb nothing cpu cache. failing join pieces purpose of tlb , cache different. know how set , full associativity works in context of tlb.
this globally same behaviour: tlb use virtual address , size tag, instead of storing data, store attributes of associative page (physical address, protection, etc).
set associative means limited number of pages can share same tag/attributes, while full associative means tag/attribute can stored @ location in tlb cache. far more efficient, can done small caches.
