I am guessing may be the particular interrupt is disabled at the GIC level ? I guess best would to do a GIC registers dump and see if the interrupts are pending at the GIC level something of that sort. But best would be to check from GIC perspective. Also see if there is any low power mode that is

Incorrect. The 64 bit machine theoretically supports 2 ^ 64 bytes virtual memory space but on x86 only 48 out of 64 address buses are used. So we cannot assume the upper limit of physical space.on different platforms. And Nick you're confusing with the physical and virtual memory. The usage of memo

J.Hwan, There is a limit as 64 bit can only support 16 extabytes. Greg is right in that there is no real limit on modern machines because of this. However from my knowledge, system ram is split into a 3 to 1 ratio, where 75 percent is for user space and the only quarter is for the kernel's memo

Use pr_info() or pr_err() for getting it printed definitely as suggested. The caveat with pr_debug() is that, messages will only be printed in case you have dynamic debug control for that file enabled.(same goes with printk(KERN_DEBUG ). On Sun, Nov 23, 2014 at 6:49 PM, karthik nayak wrote: >
