| 14. A method comprising:
determining, by a logic circuitry, if a first physical address corresponding to a load instruction matches a second physical
address corresponding to a store instruction in response to determining that:
a first portion of a first virtual address corresponding to the first physical address matches a first portion of a second
virtual address corresponding to the second physical address; and
a second portion of the first virtual address is different than a second portion of the second virtual address.
