Hi All,

I have a silly question but seem I can not figure out the answer myself. I
try write a driver, in which I define a array like"

file : dummy.o

unsigned  char buffer_array[4096];

....

bdp->cbd_bufaddr  =  __pa(buffer_array);


my problem is: I try to get the physical address of buffer array, but the
_pa did not return correct address.

I try to print out:  buffer_array = 0xC4056220
                        _pa(buffer_array) = 0x4056220

But my RAM only 16M = 0x100000

My question is: how to get the physical address of buffer_array.

Thank for any answer
Jerry
