This patch extends the protection domain framework with a third plugin that is a hybrid of the previous two. The hardware task switching mechanism has a strictly-defined format for TSS data structures that causes more space to be consumed than would otherwise be required. This patch defines a smaller data structure that is allocated for each protection domain, only requiring 32 bytes instead of 128 bytes. It uses the same multi-segment memory layout as the TSS-based plugin and leaves paging disabled. However, it uses a similar mechanism as the paging plugin to perform system call dispatches and returns. For additional information, please refer to cpu/x86/mm/README.md. |

The Contiki Operating System
Contiki is an open source operating system that runs on tiny low-power microcontrollers and makes it possible to develop applications that make efficient use of the hardware while providing standardized low-power wireless communication for a range of hardware platforms.
Contiki is used in numerous commercial and non-commercial systems, such as city sound monitoring, street lights, networked electrical power meters, industrial monitoring, radiation monitoring, construction site monitoring, alarm systems, remote house monitoring, and so on.
