Re: [Xen-devel] Physical address mapping to user space in dom0 problem

["Haw-Yuan Yang" <hawyuan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, It works.

 

Here is what I have in the mmap handler:

 

if  the physical address is MMIO

    io_remap_pfn_range(MMIO_address)

else

   remap_pfn_range(virt_to_phys(cpu-ptr-returned-by-pci-alloc-consistent)

I knew that pci_alloc_consistent() will return both kernel virtual address and physical address. If I pass the physical address (dma_handler) to mmap, it return -1. However if I pass the kernel virtual address to mmap, I got a pointer point to the worng memory.

Oh, I see the problem. You can only mmap() MMIO regions using /dev/mem when running on Xen. Could your device (which you already implement ioctl() for) also implement mmap() itself? Then you can simply remap_pfn_range(virt_to_phys(cpu-ptr-returned-by-pci-alloc-consistent)). This would be a neater interface to userspace for your device anyway, imo.
