hello, The implementation of pte_offset_map() for ppc assumes that PTEs are kept in highmem (CONFIG_HIGHPTE). There is only one implmentation of pte_offset_map() as follows (include/asm-ppc/pgtable.h):
#define pte_offset_map(dir, addr) \ ((pte_t *) kmap_atomic(pmd_page(*(dir)), KM_PTE0) + pte_index(addr)) Shouldn't this be made conditional according to CONFIG_HIGHPTE is defined or not (as implemented in include/asm-i386/pgtable.h) ? the same goes for pte_offset_map_nested and the corresponding unmap functions. thanks, Satya Popuri - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
