3.2.6.3 WRITE PROTECT. The M68040 provides write protection independent of other
protection mechanisms. All table and page descriptors contain W-bits to protect areas of
memory from write accesses of any kind, including supervisor writes. An ATC descriptor
corresponding to the logical address is created with the W-bit set after the table search is
completed when a table search encounters a W-bit set in any table or page descriptor.
The subsequent retry of the write access results in an access error exception being taken.
The W-bit can be used to protect the entire area of memory defined by a branch of the
translation table or protect only one or more pages from write accesses. Figure 3-18
illustrates a memory map of the logical address space organized to use supervisor-only
and write-protect bits for protection. Figure 3-19 illustrates an example translation table for
this technique.
