In this mapping, CPU has to issue a seperate signal to show if it wants to access I/O or memory location. Memory mapped I/O - Addresses used to represent memory location and I/O device are different. So, I think we can have any of the above. I have given my explanation below let me know if anything is wrong. :) @srestha Assume a peripheral device(say PD1) wants to write to memory. Since IOP does not have address mapping hardware, CPU does all the work and gives the memory address to IOP. Now, IOP needs to ensure mutual exclusion among the IO devices PD1, PD2 PD3 etc while accessing the memory location. Hence we will need simple lock and key memory protection.

India is not a native English speaking country and I think it is better to use Indian English in all the answers (or English used in textbooks and not vernacular English). I had to search for the meaning of "peachy" as I did not know. :( "then it ain't gonna be peachy" means "then it is not going to be fine" 11 votes 11 votes Harpuneet Kalsi commented Jul 1, 2021 reply Follow Share even if i/o processors have address mapping hardware , don’t they still require some synchronization techniques ?? 0 votes 0 votes ajayraho commented Jan 21 reply Follow Share best answer 🏆 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
