Memory aliasing and nodes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi all,
This is the second time in my career that I've stumbled upon a SOC
which has 32bit memory aliasing for high memory for the usage of
drivers that can only address 32bit address space.

Basically, a subset of a memory higher than 4GB can be accessed also
through a range in the low 4GB addresses.

I didn't see any support for this neither Linux kernel nor in device
tree. I'm wondering if you considered adding a way to describe such
addressing in the device tree, and maybe later Linux can add support
for it.

Thanks,
Ramon
