547 | This driver allows other kernel drivers access to the | ||
548 | contents of the restricted access region control registers. | ||
549 | |||
550 | The restricted access region control registers | ||
551 | (rar_registers) are used to pass address and | ||
552 | locking information on restricted access regions | ||
553 | to other drivers that use restricted access regions. | ||
554 | |||
555 | The restricted access regions are regions of memory | ||
556 | on the Intel MID Platform that are not accessible to | ||
557 | the x86 processor, but are accessible to dedicated | ||
558 | processors on board peripheral devices. | ||
559 | |||
560 | The purpose of the restricted access regions is to | ||
561 | protect sensitive data from compromise by unauthorized | ||
562 | programs running on the x86 processor. | ||
