system software initializes the UTLB with page-translation entries, management of the MicroBlaze
UTLB is usually performed using interrupt handlers running in real mode.

The following sections describe the conditions under which exceptions occur due to TLB access
failures.
Data-Storage Exception
When virtual mode is enabled, (MSR[VM]=1), a data-storage exception occurs when access to a
page is not permitted for any of the following reasons:

Figure 2-21: General Process for Examining a TLB Entry
From user mode:
♦ The TLB entry specifies a zone field that prevents access to the page (ZPR[Zn]=00). This
applies to load and store instructions.
♦ The TLB entry specifies a read-only page (TLBLO[WR]=0) that is not otherwise
overridden by the zone field (ZPR[Zn]‚ 11). This applies to store instructions.
