In a processor having an address translation table, a method includes providing a logical address and control signal. When the control signal has a first value, a first physical address is provided corresponding to the logical address, and when the control signal has a second value, a second physical address is provided. The first physical address and the second physical address are stored in at least one valid entry of the address translation table. In one case, the first physical address is stored in a first valid entry having a tag field which matches the logical address and the second physical address is stored in a second valid entry having a tag field which matches the logical address. Alternatively, the first physical address is stored in a first field of a first valid entry and the second physical address is stored in a second field of the first valid entry.
