Description

Functions that relate to the Memory Protection Unit.

The following functions support the optional Memory Protection Unit (MPU) that is available on the Cortex-M23, M33, M35P processor.

The MPU is used to prevent from illegal memory accesses that are typically caused by errors in an application software.

Example:

int main()
{
// Set Region 0 using Attr 0
ARM_MPU_SetMemAttr(0UL, ARM_MPU_ATTR( /* Normal memory */
ARM_MPU_ATTR_MEMORY_(0UL, 1UL, 1UL, 1UL), /* Outer Write-Back transient with read and write allocate */
ARM_MPU_ATTR_MEMORY_(0UL, 0UL, 1UL, 1UL) /* Inner Write-Through transient with read and write allocate */
));
ARM_MPU_RBAR(0x08000000UL, ARM_MPU_SH_NON, 0UL, 1UL, 1UL), /* Non-shareable, read/write, non-privileged, execute-never */
ARM_MPU_RLAR(0x080FFFFFUL, 0UL) /* 1MB memory block using Attr 0 */
);
// Execute application code that is access protected by the MPU
}
