(copied from x86-64) It checks that there is a va->pa mapping, not necessarily in the linear map as it walks the page tables. So for some I/O range that happens to be mapped but which was in close proximity to RAM so that pfn_valid() is true, kern_addr_valid() would return true. I don't thin that was the intention. > Would you expect to have a direct map for memory holes and similar (IOW, > !System RAM)? No, but we with the generic pfn_valid(), it may return true for mapped MMIO (with different attributes than the direct map). > > > > > > Either pfn_valid() gets confused in 5.14 or something is wrong with the > > > > > > DT.
