Hi Mika,

Both SECTION_SIZE_BITS 28 and MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 32 are defined correctly in the kernel header and defs.h.
Although, still I got 
>> crash: invalid kernel virtual address: f67f000  type: "page table"

It might come form my vmcore file's incorrectness.
Currently my vmcore contains the following, 
Program Headers:
  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz MemSiz  Flg Align
  NOTE           0x000074 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000 0x00000     0
  LOAD           0x000074 0xc0000000 0x00000000 0x20000000 0x20000000 RWE 0

But actual mapping is,
Virtual 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff corresponds Physical 0x00000000-0x0fffffff
and 
Virtual 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff corresponds Physical 0x40000000-0x4fffffff

Then I tried to prepend the following header instead,
Program Headers:
  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz MemSiz  Flg Align
  NOTE           0x000094 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000 0x00000     0
  LOAD           0x000094 0xc0000000 0x00000000 0x10000000 0x10000000 RWE 0
  LOAD           0x10000094 0xd0000000 0x40000000 0x10000000 0x10000000 RWE 0

This time crash does not recognize the vmcore file.

Perhaps I have to change VTOP/PTOV macros accordingly?

Best Regards,

Takuo
