The bad pfn:fa442 is not system memory(mem=384M mem=512M@7680M), after debugging,
I find in page fault handler, will get wrong pfn from pte just after set pte,
as follow:
do_anonymous_page()
{
...
set_pte_at(mm, address, page_table, entry);
//debug code
pfn = pte_pfn(entry);
pr_info("pfn:0x%lx, pte:0x%llx\n", pfn, pte_val(entry));
//read out the pte just set
new_pte = pte_offset_map(pmd, address);
new_pfn = pte_pfn(*new_pte);
pr_info("new pfn:0x%lx, new pte:0x%llx\n", pfn, pte_val(entry));
...
}
Thanks, must have missed tickling this one.
pfn: 0x1fa4f5, pte:0xc00001fa4f575f
new_pfn:0xfa4f5, new_pte:0xc00000fa4f5f5f //new pfn/pte is wrong.
The bug is happened in cpu_v7_set_pte_ext(ptep, pte):
when pte is 64-bit, for little-endian, will store low 32-bit in r2,
high 32-bit in r3; for big-endian, will store low 32-bit in r3,
high 32-bit in r2, this will cause wrong pfn stored in pte,
so we should exchange r2 and r3 for big-endian.

If possible can we avoid large #ifdef blocks here?
Two ideas are
ARM_LE(tst r2, #L_PTE_VALID)
ARM_BE(tst r3, #L_PTE_VALID)
or change r2, r3 pair to say rlow, rhi and
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8
#define rlow r3
#define rhi r2
#else
#define rlow r2
#define rhi r3
