Address-based filtering for load/store speculation

Address-based filtering for load/store speculation includes maintaining a filtering table including table entries associated with ranges of addresses; in response to receiving an ordering check triggering transaction, querying the filtering table using a target address of the ordering check triggering transaction to determine if an instruction dependent upon the ordering check triggering transaction has previously been generated a physical address; and in response to determining that the filtering table lacks an indication that the instruction dependent upon the ordering check triggering transaction has previously been generated a physical address, bypassing a lookup operation in an ordering violation memory structure to determine whether the instruction dependent upon the ordering check triggering transaction is currently in-flight.
