    摘要: An apparatus and method for implementing a multiple page size translation lookaside buffer (TLB). For example, a method according to one embodiment comprises: reading a first group of bits and a second group of bits from a linear address; determining whether the linear address is associated with a large page size or a small page size; identifying a first cache set using the first group of bits if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache set using the second group of bits if the linear address is associated with a second page size; and identifying a first cache way if the linear address is associated with a first page size and identifying a second cache way if the linear address is associated with a second page size.
