feature provides an additional mechanism, besides the +normal page permissions as established by +.Xr mmap 2 +and +.Xr mprotect 2 , +to control access to user-mode addresses. +The mechanism gives safety measures which can be used to avoid +incidental read or modification of sensitive memory, +or as a debugging feature. +It cannot guard against conscious accesses since permissions +are user-controllable. +.Pp +If supported by hardware, each mapped user linear address +has an associated 4-bit protection key. +A new per-thread PKRU hardware register determines, for each protection +key, whether user-mode addresses with that protection key may be +read or written. +.Pp +Only one key may apply to a given range at a time. +The default protection key index is zero, it is used even if no key +was explicitly assigned to the address, or if the key was removed. +.Pp +The protection prevents the system from accessing user addresses as well +as the user applications. +When a system call was unable to read or write user memory due to key +protection, it returns the +.Er EFAULT +error code. +Note that some side effects may have occurred if this error is reported. +.Pp +Protection keys require that the system uses 4-level paging +(also called long mode), +which means that it is only available on amd64 system. +Both 64-bit and 32-bit applications can use protection keys. +More information about the hardware feature is provided in the IA32 Software +Developer's Manual published by Intel Corp. +.Pp +The key indexes written into the page table entries are managed by the +.Fn sysarch +syscall. +Per-key permissions are managed using the user-mode instructions +.Em RDPKRU +and +.Em WRPKRU. +The system provides convenient library helpers for both the syscall and +the instructions, described below. +.Pp +The +.Fn x86_pkru_protect_range +function assigns key +.Fa keyidx +to the range starting at +.Fa addr +and having length +.Fa len . +Starting address is truncated to the page start, +and the end is rounded up to the end of the page. +After a successfull call, the range has the specified key assigned, +even if the key is zero and it did not change the page table entries. +.Pp +The +.Fa flags +argument takes the logical OR of the following values: +.Bl -tag -width +.It Bq Va AMD64_PKRU_EXCL +Only assign the key if the range does not have any other keys assigned +(including the zero key). +You must first remove any existing key with +.Fn x86_pkru_unprotect_range +in order for this request to succeed. +If the +.Va AMD64_PKRU_EXCL +flag is not specified, +.Fn x86_pkru_protect_range +replaces any existing key. +.It Bq Va AMD64_PKRU_PERSIST +The keys assigned to the range are persistent. +They are re-established when the current mapping is destroyed +and a new mapping is created in any sub-range of the specified range. +You must use a +.Fn x86_pkru_unprotect_range +call to forget the key. +.El +.Pp +The +.Fn x86_pkru_unprotect_range +function removes any keys assigned to the specified range. +Existing mappings are changed to use key index zero in page table entries. +Keys are no longer considered installed for all mappings in the range, +for the purposes of +.Fn x86_pkru_protect_range +with the +.Va AMD64_PKRU_EXCL +flag. +.Pp +The +.Fn x86_pkru_get_perm +function returns access rights for the key specified by the +.Fn keyidx +argument. +If the value pointed to by +.Fa access +is zero after the call, no read or write permissions is granted for +mappings which are assigned the key +.Fn keyidx . +If +.Fa access +is not zero, read access is permitted. +The non-zero value of the variable pointed to by the +.Fa modify +argument indicates that write access is permitted. +.Pp +Conversely, the +.Fn x86_pkru_set_perm +establishes the access and modify permissions for the given key index +as specified by its arguments. +.Sh RETURN VALUES +.Rv -std +.Sh ERRORS +.Bl -tag -width Er +.It Bq Er EOPNOTSUPP +The hardware
