Hello guys,

Since I am interested in the  new hardware feature: MPK(Memory Protection Keys),  so I am wondering are there any docs or manuals about MPK?

I have tried to search about MPK but I couldn't find any thing except an lwn article(https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/) and a kernel doc....

I would appreciate any responses and suggestions!

Best wishes!

The feature is called "protection keys" in the SDM. See volume 3.
