CONFIG_ARCH_MEM_DOMAIN_SYNCHRONOUS_API¶
(No prompt – not directly user assignable.)
Type: bool
Help¶
This hidden option is selected by the target architecture if
modifying a memory domain's partitions at runtime, or changing
a memory domain's thread membership requires synchronous calls
into the architecture layer.
If enabled, the architecture layer must implement the following
APIs:
arch_mem_domain_thread_add
arch_mem_domain_thread_remove
arch_mem_domain_partition_remove
arch_mem_domain_partition_add
It's important to note that although supervisor threads can be
members of memory domains, they have no implications on supervisor
thread access to memory. Memory domain APIs may only be invoked from
supervisor mode.
For these reasons, on uniprocessor systems unless memory access
policy is managed in separate software constructions like page
tables, these APIs don't need to be implemented as the underlying
memory management hardware will be reprogrammed on context switch
anyway.
Direct dependencies¶
(Includes any dependencies from ifs and menus.)
Defaults¶
No defaults. Implicitly defaults to n.
