Abstract

See full text

A multi-processor system 8 includes multiple processing devices, including DSPs (10), processor units (MPUs) (21), co-processors (30) and DMA channels (31). Some of the devices may include internal MMUs (19, 32) which allows the device (10, 21, 30, 31) to work with a large virtual address space mapped to an external shared memory (20). The MMUs (19, 32) may perform the translation between a virtual address and the physical address associated with the external shared memory (20). Access to the shared memory (20) is controlled using a unified memory management system.
