System and method for invalidating an entry in a translation unit

Abstract

As a program is replaced by the operating system running within a microprocessor, only those entries associated with the replaced program and resident within effective-to-real address translation units will be replaced. Those entries within the effective-to-real address translation units associated with the operating system and shared libraries, and any other software units operating within the microprocessor will not be invalidated.
