Hello all again, > ptr = (unsigned char*)mmap(0,lineSize,PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,MAP_SHARED,fd0,0); > ... > for (i = 0; i < 12; i++) > *ptr++ = 0xaa; > > this loop will not write all bytes correctly (every 4 bytes will have 0xaa as > value), here is dump from Lauterbach debugger: > ___address__|_0________4________8________C________0123456789ABCDEF > D:83660000|>FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF ................ > D:83660010| 000000AA 000000AA 000000AA 0000AA02 ................ Is 83660000 a proper physical address or a virtual address? A common mistake is mapping a KSEG _virtual_ address to a userspace _virtual_ address. Obviously mapping anything virtual to something else virtual doesn't work ... Ok, physical address for fb mmap is 0x03660000, mmap return 0x2aaa8000 to user space application and ptr is shifted for 16 bytes (only for test purpose), so loop will start writing from 0x2aaa8010, with Lauterbach I can check only 0x83660000 or 0xA3660000 address and both are different then expected. Also small test loop also show that values on 0x2aaa8010 are not ok. Also if I write/read to this memory as u32 everything work as expected. I also have here IDT board with 79RC32K438 (4Kc core) and I will same test. > My linux will be crashed on 13 write.
