Macros

Caching mode definitions.

These are mutually exclusive.

#define SYS_MM_MEM_CACHE_NONE   2
 No caching.
 
#define SYS_MM_MEM_CACHE_WT   1
 Write-through caching.
 
#define SYS_MM_MEM_CACHE_WB   0
 Full write-back caching.
 
#define SYS_MM_MEM_CACHE_MASK   (BIT(3) - 1)
 Reserved bits for cache modes.
 
Region permission attributes.

Default should be read-only, no user, no exec.

#define SYS_MM_MEM_PERM_RW   BIT(3)
 Region will have read/write access (and not read-only)
 
#define SYS_MM_MEM_PERM_EXEC   BIT(4)
 Region will be executable (normally forbidden)
 
#define SYS_MM_MEM_PERM_USER   BIT(5)
 Region will be accessible to user mode (normally supervisor-only)
 

Functions

Memory Mapping and Unmapping

On mapping and unmapping of memory.

int sys_mm_drv_map_page (void *virt, uintptr_t phys, uint32_t flags)
 Map one physical page into the virtual address space.
 
int sys_mm_drv_map_region (void *virt, uintptr_t phys, size_t size, uint32_t flags)
 Map a region of physical memory into the virtual address space.
 
int sys_mm_drv_map_array (void *virt, uintptr_t *phys, size_t cnt, uint32_t flags)
 Map an array of physical memory into the virtual address space.
 
int sys_mm_drv_unmap_page (void *virt)
 Remove mapping for one page of the provided virtual address.
 
int sys_mm_drv_unmap_region (void *virt, size_t size)
 Remove mappings for a provided virtual address range.
 
int sys_mm_drv_remap_region (void *virt_old, size_t size, void *virt_new)
 Remap virtual pages into new address.
 
Memory Moving

On moving already mapped memory.

int sys_mm_drv_move_region (void *virt_old, size_t size, void *virt_new, uintptr_t phys_new)
 Physically move memory, with copy.
 
int sys_mm_drv_move_array (void *virt_old, size_t size, void *virt_new, uintptr_t *phys_new, size_t phys_cnt)
 Physically move memory, with copy.
 
Memory Mapping Attributes

On manipulating attributes of already mapped memory.

int sys_mm_drv_update_page_flags (void *virt, uint32_t flags)
 Update memory page flags.
 
int sys_mm_drv_update_region_flags (void *virt, size_t size, uint32_t flags)
 Update memory region flags.
 

Memory Mappings Query

On querying information on memory mappings.

#define SYS_MM_DRV_MEMORY_REGION_FOREACH(regions, iter)
 Iterates over an array of regions returned by sys_mm_drv_query_memory_regions.
 
int sys_mm_drv_page_phys_get (void *virt, uintptr_t *phys)
 Get the mapped physical memory address from virtual address.
 
const struct sys_mm_drv_regionsys_mm_drv_query_memory_regions (void)
 Query available memory regions.
 
void sys_mm_drv_query_memory_regions_free (const struct sys_mm_drv_region *regions)
 Free the memory array returned by sys_mm_drv_query_memory_regions.
 

Detailed Description

Memory Management Driver APIs.

This contains APIs for a system-wide memory management driver. Only one instance is permitted on the system.
