We shouldn't need the #ifdef, radix_enabled() will be false. > + if (radix_enabled() && regs->msr & PPC_BIT(35)) > + goto bad_area; Is it really architected as radix only? Personally I dislike PPC_BIT(), I'd rather you just used 0x10000000. That way when I'm staring at a register dump I have some chance of spotting that mask. Also brackets around the bitwise & would make me feel more comfortable. cheers
