[PATCH 3.10 07/48] ARM: 7840/1: LPAE: dont reject mapping /dev/mem above 4GB

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

 



3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sergey Dyasly <dserrg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 3159f372354e8e1f5dee714663d705dd2c7e0759 upstream.

With LPAE enabled, physical address space is larger than 4GB. Allow mapping any
part of it via /dev/mem by using PHYS_MASK to determine valid range.

PHYS_MASK covers 40 bits with LPAE enabled and 32 bits otherwise.
