The RISC-V ISA defines different privilege levels: Machine, Hypervisor, Supervisor, User. It is possible for a chip to conform to the RISC-V Privilege Spec v1.9 by only implementing the bare metal or Machine mode, which is what the chip on this board does. So the chip on this board does not have User mode or an MMU.
