Abstract

This application discloses a memory protection method and a protection proxy control apparatus. In an example method, in response to determining that an accelerator or an input/output (I/O) device requests to access a system memory by using a direct physical address, the protection proxy control apparatus may obtain, based on an identifier of a data stream of the accelerator or the I/O device, permission information of a physical page table in which a physical address requested to be accessed by the data stream is located, and perform permission check on the memory access request based on the permission information.
