TLB hit by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-14 Updated 2026-10-14
A lookup that finds a valid cached address translation for the relevant address space. The access can still cause a page fault if the cached permissions forbid it.
For the 64-byte toy model in address translation, a cached process A page-4 mapping covers reads at both 0x12D and 0x12E, yielding physical addresses 0x36D and 0x36E. The TLB hit reuses the mapping; it does not guarantee that either requested byte is in a data memory cache.
