Title: Apparatus and method using plurality of physical address spaces
Inventor: JASON PARKER
IPC: G06F21/57
Filed: 2020-03-24
Abstract: A requester-side, physical memory address space (PAS) filter 20 (e.g. granular memory protection unit -GMPU located on the MMU output) performs a granule protection lookup based on a target physical address (PA) and a selected PAS. The filter uses granule protection information (GPI) and determines if memory access can be granted or not. The GPI may include a security attribute such as a PAS tag and sharing information (e.g. added by a high trust or root domain) to indicate if a certain PAS may be accessed by a (e.g. less secure) domain. The PAS may be selected based on a domain of operation (e.g. secure, non-secure, realm or root). The root domain may manage switching between the other domains and the accessibility of these domains from each other may be based on accessibility permissions set by the root domain (see table, p.33). Transactions remain tagged with the PAS TAG as they propagate throughout the system 24, 8 until they read a Point of Physical Aliasing (PoPA) 60 at a completer side of the system. At the PoPA, the PAS TAG is stripped and the address changes from a Logical Physical Address to a System Physical Address.

Title: Detecting and Locating Process Control Communication Line Faults from a Handheld Maintenance Tool
Inventor: MEHUL RAJESHBHAI DALAL
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2017-02-08
Abstract: A handheld device 100 for detecting a fault 310 in a communication line 300 of a process control network of a process control system generates a pulse signal on the communication line and thereafter detects an echo pulse signal on the communication line, the echo pulse signal being a reflection of the pulse signal at the fault. It includes a processor which analyses the echo pulse signal to determine a fault in the communication line and a user interface which indicates a location of the fault relative to a location of a process control device of the PCS based on knowledge of the process control network. The fault location may be determined using a time differential between generating and detecting the pulse or using an amplitude of the echo pulse. In an alternative, a power signal is provided instead of the pulse signal, a current is measured in response and the processor determines the existence of a low impedance fault (320,Fig.4) there-from.
