Processor with kernel mode access to user space virtual addresses |
摘要 |
A computer includes a memory and a processor connected to the memory. The processor includes memory segment configuration registers to store defined memory address segments and defined memory address segment attributes such that the processor operates in accordance with the defined memory address segments and defined memory address segment attributes to allow kernel mode access to user space virtual addresses for enhanced kernel mode memory capacity. |

1. A method, comprising:
storing defined memory address segments and defined memory address segment attributes in registers of a processor; and operating the processor in accordance with the defined memory address segments and defined memory address segment attributes, wherein operating includes:
overriding fixed memory address segments with fixed attributes associated with the processor, andallowing kernel mode access to user space virtual addresses for enhanced kernel mode memory capacity. |
