Abstract: A microprocessor includes a physically-indexed-and-tagged second-level set-associative cache. Each cache entry is uniquely identified by a set index and way number. Each store queue (SQ) entry holds store data for writing to a store physical address and a store physical address proxy (PAP) for the store physical line address. The store PAP specifies the set index and way number of the cache entry allocated to the store physical line address. A load unit obtains a load PAP for a load physical line address that specifies the set index and way number of the cache entry allocated to the load physical line address. The SQ compares the load PAP with each valid store PAP for use in identifying a candidate set of SQ entries whose store data overlaps requested load data and selects an entry from the candidate set from which to forward the store data to the load instruction.
