Using Cortex-M3 MPU for Process Protection in Linux Cortex-M

This document is an application note explaining how to use the Memory Protection Unit (MPU) of the Cortex-M3 processor core to provide process protection in Linux Cortex-M.

Unlike the "MMU-full" Linux, the generic uClinux does not provide process-to-kernel or process-to-process protection. User processes are able to access all regions of the address space that are accessible in the user (non-priviledged) ... Read more
