interpreted in the same way as for a section (see “Interpreting access permission bits” on page 121).

The only difference is that the fault generated is a page permission fault.

Tiny page: If the level one descriptor defines a page-mapped access and the level two descriptor is for a tiny page, the AP bits of the level one descriptor define whether the access is allowed in the same way as for a section. The fault generated is a page permission fault.

In addition to MMU-generated aborts, external aborts cam be generated for certain types of access that involve transfers over the AHB bus. These aborts can be used to flag errors on external memory accesses. Not all accesses can be aborted in this way, however.

These accesses can be aborted externally: Page walks

Noncached reads Nonbuffered writes

Noncached read-lock-write (SWP) sequence

For a read-lock-write (SWP) sequence, the write is always attempted if the read externally aborts.

A swap to an NCB region is forced to have precisely the same behavior as a swap to an NCNB region. This means that the write part of a swap to an NCB region can be aborted externally.

Enabling the

MMU

Before enabling the MMU using the R1: Control register, you must perform these steps:

1Program the R2: Translation Table Base register and the R3: Domain Access Control register.

2Program first-level and second-level page tables as required, ensuring that a valid translation table is placed in memory at the location specified by the Translation Table Base register.

When these steps have been performed, you can enable the MMU by setting R1: Control register bit 0 (the M bit) to high.
