Linux/OMAP3530: understanding MMU

Guru 20755 points
Part Number: OMAP3530


Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

I am trying to understand better the idea of using MMU.

It is said that MMU can map pages with permission for read/write.

  • Does MMU give permssions according to precess ? (not sure if MMU knows process) ?
  • When using baremetal OS, and configuring page tables to read only, does it mean "no one" can write the pages ?

Thank you,

Ran
