Please quote the relevant portion of the message that you are replying
to. The above context was restored. Newsgroup etiquette is to avoid
IM-style abbreviations -- use proper spelling, capitalization, sentence
structure, and punctuation.
Roberto said "certain pages", not "certain memory". He meant that
time-critical portions of code would not be overwritten by the MMU, so
that it could be executed without the delay of of swapping it into
memory. "Certain pages" meant the the selected memory pages that
contains the time-critical code. Locking these into memory means not
allowing them to be overwritten.

Ok, I understand what you are saying.
What do u mean certain memory ? Dont you mean all memory? if certain
amount of memory will not reside in RAM will still have this
contradiction you mentioned, no ?

The obvious "contradiction" is the possible insertion of an indefinite
time delay at the point the page fault needs to be handled.
Many systems will allow you to lock certain pages in memory, to avoid
that from happening.

Hi all,
I am new to this forum.
anyone here has experience working with an MMU which handles page-fault
in RTOS embedded system?
Is there a contradiction between page-fault handling (a case where not
all the code is resident in RAM/ROM) and RTOS?
I would really appritiate any help on this.
