Subject: Creating a page struct for HIGHMEM pages
Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2003 18:02:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <006c01c3bcdb$92290f50$1d01a8c0@CARTMAN> (raw)
Hi,
Suppose I want to create a page struct pointing to high memory (e.g. IO
mapped memory), that is, allocate the memory for the page struct myself and
fill in the values, what are the necessary flags/values (other than the
'virtual' field) I must be sure to set? Does the page* need to be located
anywhere specific? Does the pte field need to be set in anyway? The
question is relevant to kernel versions 2.4.20 and up.
Thanks,
Amir.
