Abstract:
A method for accessing data blocks stored in a computer system. The method may include hardware components for controlling access to a memory unit of the computer system. The memory unit includes a page table and an operating system, where each data block of the data blocks is accessed via a virtual address. The method further includes: adding an entry in the page table for each data block of a first set of the data blocks, the page table represents the virtual address; checking that a first entry of the added entries represents a first virtual address, in response to receiving a request of a first data block via the first virtual address by a memory management unit of the computer system; and obtaining a first physical address of the first data block from the hardware components, and the added entry is provided without indication of the first physical address.
