Abstract

See full text

A technique for handling an unaligned load operation includes detecting a cache line crossing load operation that is associated with a first cache line and a second cache line. In response to an cache including the first cache line but not including the second cache line, the second cache line is reloaded into the cache in a same set as the first cache line. In response to reloading the second cache line in the cache, a cache line crossing link indicator associated with the first cache line is asserted to indicate that both the first and second cache lines include portions of a desired data element.
