Up to 896 MB, one can find the physical address of a page just by substracting the PAGE_OFFSET from it. I understand this is valid for static(initialized or BSS) kernel variables loaded vith vmlinux file but I am confused about other situations like allocating memory in modules. Because the same physical memory may be mapped by different virtual addresses during the working of the kernel... Can someone shed light one these situations... Thanks in advance...
