Page protections and access rights are different on Alpha and Integrity server systems. They are visible in output from the following commands: SHOW PAGE SHOW PROCESS/PAGE EXAMINE/PTE EVALUATE/PTE Due to system differences, there is a need to distinguish "Write+Read+Execute" from "Write+Read" and to distinguish "Read+Execute" from "Read". On an Alpha system, W=W+R+E and R=R+E but on an IA64 system, additional w and r indicators are introduced for non-execute cases. On Alpha, page protection is described by 8 bits- one Read bit for each mode, and one Write Bit. Therefore in the "Read" column, there might be KESU (read access in all modes) or K- (read access in Kernel mode only) or NONE (no read access). Similarly in the "Writ" column. Not all combinations of the 8 bits are possible (for example, Write access for a mode implies Read access at that mode and both Read and Write access for all inner modes). On Integrity servers, page protection is described by 5 bits, a combination of the Access Rights and Privilege Level fields. SDA interprets these with a single character to describe access in each mode, as follows: Code Meaning r Read w Read, Write R Read, Execute W Read, Write, Execute X Execute K Promote to Kernel E Promote to Executive S Promote to Supervisor - No access For example WRRR means Kernel mode has Read+Write+Execute access; all other modes have Read+Execute access.
