  2. Translation lookaside buffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_lookaside_buffer

    If the requested address is present in the TLB, the CAM search yields a match quickly and the retrieved physical address can be used to access memory. This is called a TLB hit. If the requested address is not in the TLB, it is a miss, and the translation proceeds by looking up the page table in a process called a page walk. The page walk is ...

  3. Page table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_table

    If a match is found, which is known as a TLB hit, the physical address is returned and memory access can continue. However, if there is no match, which is called a TLB miss , the MMU, the system firmware, or the operating system's TLB miss handler will typically look up the address mapping in the page table to see whether a mapping exists ...

  4. List of Unicode characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

    95 characters; the 52 alphabet characters belong to the Latin script. The remaining 43 belong to the common script. The 33 characters classified as ASCII Punctuation & Symbols are also sometimes referred to as ASCII special characters. Often only these characters (and not other Unicode punctuation) are what is meant when an organization says a ...

  5. Second Level Address Translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Level_Address...

    When processes use virtual addresses and an instruction requests access to memory, the processor translates the virtual address to a physical address using a page table or translation lookaside buffer (TLB). When running a virtual system, it has allocated virtual memory of the host system that serves as a physical memory for the guest system ...

  6. Kernel page-table isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_page-table_isolation

    Kernel page-table isolation (KPTI or PTI, [1] previously called KAISER) [2] [3] is a Linux kernel feature that mitigates the Meltdown security vulnerability (affecting mainly Intel's x86 CPUs) [4] and improves kernel hardening against attempts to bypass kernel address space layout randomization (KASLR).

  7. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text.More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters.These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean.

  8. TLB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TLB

    TLB may refer to: Science and technology. Adaptive transmit load balancing or balance-tlb, a Linux bonding driver mode; Canon TLb, a 35 mm camera;

  9. CPUID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPUID

    This returns a list of descriptors indicating cache and TLB capabilities in EAX, EBX, ECX and EDX registers. On processors that support this leaf, calling CPUID with EAX=2 will cause the bottom byte of EAX to be set to 01h [ a ] and the remaining 15 bytes of EAX/EBX/ECX/EDX to be filled with 15 descriptors, one byte each.
