Not necessarily. I've done a Lua system for an embedded environment
built around a VMEbus. For it, I implemented a vme table with entries
that allowed access to hardware; vme.a16d32 is an array that does 32-bit
accesses in A16 space, vme.a16d16 is an array that does 16-bit accesses
in A16 space, etc.
Of course, I'm not trying to field interrupts in Lua...
