Method and system for creating secure address space using hardware memory router

摘要

A method and system providing dynamic allocation of memory through hardware is disclosed. An embodiment provides for a multi-processor system providing for a secure partitioned memory. The system comprises a processor(s), a hardware implemented memory router coupled to the processor(s), and memory coupled to the memory router. The memory router stores memory partition information, which describes the memory allocated to the processor(s). Furthermore, the memory router maps a memory access request from a processor to an address in the memory.
