The MMU support is a very challenging project. The scope of the project 
and potential use cases must be determined. You need a lot of experience 
to design good APIs and it helps if you know the APIs for this kind of 
stuff on other systems like QNX, Linux, FreeBSD, etc. For the 
architecture support a lot of background knowledge is required at least 
on PowerPC, ARMv5..8, SPARC, Nios2, MIPS, etc. For example, changing the 
TLB1 based MMU during application run-time on PowerPC (including SMP 
support, cache consistency) is not easy. There are some optimization 
problems involved if you want to determine a good cover with memory 
areas (alignment restrictions, limited number of areas in the MMU/MPU if 
not page based, e.g. 16).
