Hi,
I don't know what version of kernel you're using. But I guess you
might also need 4302e0fb7fa5b071e30f3cfb68e85155b3d69d9b (PCI: fix
wrong memory address handling in MSI-X).
Regards,

Hi.
I faced same probrem, too. I use x86_64 kernel.
Your patch fix it. it's very effective.
Thanks!

Hi,
Here is a updated version (v.3) of patchset to fix ioremap() related
problem found in x86 32-bit mode. The problem is that ioremap() maps
wrong address for the device to which phisical addres higer than
32-bit is assigned (ioat device in my case).
The v.3 patches are:
- [PATCH 1/2] x86: ioremap: fix wrong physical address handling
- [PATCH 2/2] x86: ioremap: fix normal ram range check
Changelog
---------
v.2=>v.3:
- Matthew Wilcox suggested changing PAGE_MASK definition. But I think
it is a little risky. Instead of changing PAGE_MASK, v.3 patch uses
PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK(*) to mask physical address again, as v.1 patch
did. The PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK doesn't work for higher than 2^44
physical address because __PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT is 44 in x86_32
PAE(*). But this time, I focus on making 2^44 work correctly.
(*) Current X86_32 PAE kernel would not work with physical address
higher than 2^44, because PFNs are handled using 32-bit variable
(unsigned long) probably in many places. This seems the reason why
__PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT is limited to 44 (=32+12 is the limit we can
fit into an unsigned long pfn). When x86 PAE linux becomes above
2^44 physical address capable in someday, __PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT
should become greater value than 44.
v.1=>v.2:
The v.1 patchset was based on my misunderstanding about architectural
limit and linux memory management limit of physical address. So some
patches in v.1 were totally wrong fixes and they are removed. Thanks
to the feedbacks for v.1 patchset, it turned out that phsical address
is handled improperly (higher 32-bits are cleared unexpectedly) also
in the other places than where v.1 patchset fixed. Here are summary of
changes.
- Stop using PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK to align physical address because
PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK would not work if physical address is higher than
44-bit.
- Fix remaining bugs of physical address handling in ioremap() code
path according to the feedbacks.
- Fix s_show() in vmalloc.c to show high physical address properly.
- Removed changes against phys_addr_valid() ([PATCH 2/4] in v.1).
- Removed changes against warning message in ioremap() ([PATCH 3/4] in
v.1).
Thanks,
Kenji Kaneshige
