//1) A general register contains an address,attributes,and permissions
//2) ITIR: additional info such as protection key page size info
//3) IFA: specifies the virtual page number for instruction and data
// TLB inserts
//
//Registers used:
//---------------
//
//GR
//
// ITIR | rv {63:32} | key {31:8} | ps {7:2} | rv {1:0}|
//
//IFA
//
//RR[vrn] | reserved{63:32} | rid {31:8}| ignored {7:2) | rv{1} | ignored {0}|
//
//
//where
//ig = ignored bits
//rv= reserved bits
//p = present bit
//ma = memory attribute
//a = accessed bit
//d = dirty bit
//pl= privilege level
//ar= access rights
//ppn= physical page number
//ed= exception deferral
//ps= page size of mapping (2**ps)
//vpn= virtual page number
//
// Setup virtual page number
//
// NOTE:The virtual page number depends on a translation's
//page size.
//
// Add entry for TEXT section

//register), use physical page of zero

Volume 2, Part 2: Code Examples
The Translation Insertion Format looks like the following...
Below is the register interface to insert entries into the TLB
| 63 53 | 52 | 51 50 | 49 12 | 11 9| 8 7 | 6 | 5 |4 1| 0 |
| ig | ed | rv |
| vpn {63:12}| ignored {11:0} |
cr.ifa = r2
cr.itir = r3
(1 <<6 ) | ( 1 << 5 ) | ( 1 << 0 ))
ppn | ar | pl | d | a | ma | p |
// Insert translation register
// skip to tr next index
