Abstract
A two-level memory region registration and address translation method includes a memory handle table and a translation and protection table (TPT). Each memory region registered is associated with a unique memory handle index which accesses one entry of the memory handle table. The accessed entry in the memory handle table stores a memory handle that is combined with virtual addresses in the registered memory region to access TPT entries storing translation data for the virtual addresses in the registered memory region.
