I do not allow reading flash memory through code.

I design by S32k144.

I do not allow reading flash memory through code.

for example:

uint32_t address = 0x0;

uint32_t data = *(uint32_t *)address;

After setting，this operation will be illegal and the read data can not be the real.

But I do not know how to realize it, do you have any solutions?

The MPU can be configured to restrict access to memory regions, including flash.

Steps:
1. Enable the MPU.
2. Define a region covering the flash area.
3. Set access permissions to no access or execute-only.

Now,I want to set the address(0~0x77fff) unreadable.

s32k144 debug flash

code 1:

#define ADDRESS_PROTECT 0x0000U

(void)MPU_EnableRegion(&mpu_pal_config_1_Instance, 2U, true);

test = *((uint32_t *)ADDRESS_PROTECT);

Like this, It can be OK.

code 2:

(void)MPU_EnableRegion(&mpu_pal_config_1_Instance, 2U, false);

//test = *((uint32_t *)ADDRESS_PROTECT);

it is always in "void HardFault_Handler(void)", I can't understand this, because I don't read any address,It should be normal,but it's not,why?
