I've applied this patch. I made a few tweaks to the text, and hopefully I did not inject any errors. Could you please check the version below. One question: do I understand correctly that mmio_addr is a physical address? Maybe we should say mention that in the page.

The .BR s390_pci_mmio_read () system call reads .I length bytes of data from the PCI MMIO memory location specified by .IR mmio_addr to the user-space buffer .IR user_buffer . These system calls must be used instead of the simple assignment or data-transfer operations that are used to access the PCI MMIO memory areas mapped to user space on the Linux System z platform. The address specified by .IR mmio_addr must belong to a PCI MMIO memory page mapping in the caller's address space, and the data being written or read must not cross a page boundary. The .IR length value cannot be greater than the system page size. .SH RETURN VALUE On success, .BR s390_pci_mmio_write () and .BR s390_pci_mmio_read () return 0. On error, \-1 is returned and .IR errno is set to one of the error codes listed below. .SH ERRORS .TP .B EFAULT The address in .I mmio_addr is invalid. .TP .B EFAULT .IR user_buffer does not point to a valid location in the caller's address space. .TP .B EINVAL Invalid .I length argument. .TP .B ENODEV PCI support is not enabled. .TP .B ENOMEM Insufficient memory. .SH VERSIONS These system calls are available since Linux 3.19. .SH CONFORMING TO This Linux-specific system call is available only on the s390 architecture. The required PCI support is available beginning with System z EC12. .SH NOTES Glibc does not provide a wrapper for this system call, use .BR syscall (2) to call it. .SH SEE ALSO .BR syscall (2) -- Michael Kerrisk Linux man-pages maintainer; http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/ Linux/UNIX System Programming Training: http://man7.org/training/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
