The answer to both questions is the SPARC Architecture manual, version 8, which includes the MMU spec. It is published by SPARC International, 535 Middlefield Rd., Suite 210, Menlo Park, CA 94025; 415/321-8692. >>> Whoops, I need to correct my own posting. This manual documents the "reference MMU", which is not the MMU Sun has used so far. I don't know where to get a reference on Sun's proprietary MMU. Michael Slater, MIcroprocessor Report
