You should review the work that was done in previous years on this<br>
topic. There have been a few efforts made toward it. Currently, the<br>
most useful thing is to try defining a unified BSP framework for<br>
initializing and updating any memory protection related hardware, e.g.<br>
MPU/MMU. This is a pre-requisite to being able to define APIs that<br>
could rely on memory protection in a reasonably portable way.<br>
