Which one of the following is true for a $$CPU$$ with memory mapped $${\rm I}/O$$?
A
$${\rm I}/O$$ protection ensured by operating system routines(s)
B
$${\rm I}/O$$ protection is ensured by a hardware trap
C
$${\rm I}/O$$ protection is ensured during system configuration
D
$${\rm I}/O$$ protection is not possible.
