Re:PCID is now a critical performance/security feature on x86 by monocasa on Monday January 08, 2018 @03:13PM (#16099959)
The individual MMU pages aren't tagged with ASIDs, it's more like you have N page table root pointers in hardware, and rather than saying "this is the current root pointer", you say "this is the root pointer for ASID N, and separate from that this is the current ASID".
