[RESEND PATCH 3/4] x86: add high_memory check to (xlate|unxlate)_dev_mem_ptr

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

 



So far (xlate|unxlate)_dev_mem_ptr for read/write /dev/mem relies on a generic
high_memory check in valid_phys_addr_range(), which does not allow to access any
memory above high_memory whatsoever. By adding the high_memory check to
(xlate|unxlate)_dev_mem_ptr, it still will be possible to use __va safely for
kernel mapped memory and it will also allow read/write to access non-system RAM
above high_memory once the high_memory check is removed from
valid_phys_addr_range.
