TECHNIQUES FOR HANDLING MEMORY ACCESSES BY PROCESSOR-INDEPENDENT EXECUTABLE CODE IN A MULTI-PROCESSOR ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A method and apparatus for virtual address mapping are provided. The method includes determining an offset value respective of at least a first portion of code stored on a code memory unit, generating a first virtual code respective of the first portion of code and a second virtual code respective of a second portion of code stored on the code memory unit; mapping the first virtual code to a first virtual code address and the second virtual code to a second virtual code address; generating a first virtual data respective of the first portion of data and a second virtual data respective of the second portion of data; and mapping the first virtual data to a first virtual data address and the second virtual data to a second virtual data address.
