If the physical address is too high to be handled by ioremap() in
x86_32 PAE (e.g. more than 36-bit physical address), ioremap() must

high physical address, and it causes unexpected behavior.
What unexpected behavior?
My expectation:
The ioremap() function returns NULL if the specified physical address
is too high to handle.
Actual result (unexpected behavior):
Kernel hangup. This happens even with [PATCH 1/4] applied. I'm attaching
the console log messages at the bottom of this e-mail.
It is perfectly legitimately to map such a
high address in PAE mode. We have a 36-bit kernel-imposed limit on
*RAM* in 32-bit mode (because we can't manage more than that), but there
is no reason it should apply to I/O.
Do you mean x86 linux can map physical address higher than 36-bit for I/O?
My understanding is as follows.
- Architectural limit of physical address in x86 32-bit mode is 40-bit
(depnds on processor version).
- The maximum physical address supported by current x86 linux kernel in
32-bit mode is 36-bit.
On my environment, physical address higher than 40-bit (ex. 0xfc00001c000)
is assigned to some PCI devices. I think there is no way to handle such
high physical address in 32-bit mode.
Thanks,
