XIP：

• The storage must provide a similar interface to the CPU as regular memory (or an adaptive layer must be present).
• This interface must provide sufficiently fast read operations with a random access pattern.
• The file system, if one is used, needs to expose appropriate mapping functions.
• The program must either be linked to be aware of the address the storage appears at in the system or be position-independent.
• The program must not modify data within the loaded image.
