I really didn't get that, using CKSEG0 on 32bit system and TO_CAC on 64bit system won't hurt. Something like: #ifdef CONFIG_64BIT #define dmi_remap(x, l) (void *)TO_CAC(x) #else #define dmi_remap(x, l) (void *)CKSEG0(x) #endif Can help us avoid all the hassle. Since it always ensures we are using same CCA to access DMI tables. We can always trust Config.K0 left by firmware in this case. You may add some sanity check on 32 bit to avoid generating invalid pointer. (And perhaps implement it as ioremap_early.....) Thanks -- - Jiaxun
