Abstract:
An application located in one or more first memory regions is executed. The application has a separate modified portion, which is located in one or more second memory regions. A request is obtained to access one of a first memory region or a second memory region, the request including an address of a first type. Based on obtaining the request, the address is translated to another address. The other address is of a second type and indicates the first memory region or the second memory region. The translating is based on an attribute associated with the address, in which the attribute is used to select information from a plurality of information concurrently available for selection. The plurality of information provide multiple addresses of the second type, one of which is the other address. The other address is used to access the first memory region or the second memory region.
