Efficient virtualization of translation lookaside buffers (TLBs), a core component of modern hypervisors, is complicated by the concurrent, speculative walking of page tables in hardware. We give a formal model of an x64-like TLB, criteria for its correct virtualization, and outline the verification of a virtualization algorithm using shadow page tables. The verification is being carried out in VCC, a verifier for concurrent C code.
