heh ? I'm wondering if anybody is using 'CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64=n' config at
all...

Atsushi, do you have any idea on how address are translated with
'CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64=n' config ? How such code is supposed to work ?

	code_resource.start = virt_to_phys(&_text);
 	code_resource.end = virt_to_phys(&_etext) - 1;
	data_resource.start = virt_to_phys(&_etext);
 	data_resource.end = virt_to_phys(&_edata) - 1;

Let's say that '&_text' is in KSEG0 and is equal to 0xffffffff80000000.
In this case virt_to_phys() returns 0x57ffffff80000000
(with PAGE_OFFSET = 0xa800000000000000). Is this physical address
correct ?

Thanks
