This configuration requires no further rewriting of information in the first nonvolatile memory unlike other memories, and thus decreases a possibility of an occurrence of an anomaly to garble the information in the first nonvolatile memory in comparison with other memories. Whether an anomaly occurs in the second nonvolatile memory can be thus performed more appropriately.04-02-2009

20110055528DATA PROCESSOR - The data processor can form a system including a combination of two or more operating systems running in parallel, which achieves a higher data transfer rate between operating systems and the increase in system performance without impairing the system reliability. In the system, data transfer between domains is performed in an enhanced access mode as well as an access mode in which an access from a domain manager having control of domains is handled as one from the domain manager. The enhanced access mode is arranged by enhancing, to a CPU scale, an access mode in which an access from the domain manager is treated as an access from a software program working on a domain, and the software program of domain manager transfers data between the domains. For example, in case that the domain manager performs data transfer between domains in the enhanced access mode, a read access from the domain manager is disguised as a read access from a first domain, and a write access from the domain manager is disguised as a write access from a second domain.03-03-2011

In the data processor disclosed herein, when a device driver calls for access to a control register to activate a process of a dedicated controlled peripheral device, the access is handled directly without intervention of processing by the hypervisor. When an interrupt is generated from a dedicated controlled peripheral device, a process is directly initiated by the device driver of the operating system governing the peripheral device without intervention of processing by the hypervisor. By implementing this manner of control in the processor, it becomes possible to carry out peripheral device control without intervention of processing by the hypervisor. Thereby, the hypervisor overhead is alleviated.06-02-2011
