The current TLB implementation does not use the VSID at all.
This is incorrect behaviour (I think the diagram on A Quick Introduction to the PPC Memory Management System explained the correct behaviour easily for me).
The incorrect behaviour leads to previously cached pages still being used until they are flushed out of the TLB, which could lead to an application or game reading or writing to the "wrong" pages.
