It should rather be something like > > unsigned long pages = (end >> PAGE_SHIFT) - (addr >> PAGE_SHIFT); That would be 0 for addr = 0 and vma->vm_end = 1; I assume we would still want to count that as one page. I'm not too familiar with this area of the code, but I think there's a handy macro we can use for this, perhaps DIV_ROUND_UP(end - addr, PAGE_SIZE) ? kernel/kexec_core.c has defined PAGE_COUNT() which seems more appropriate but I do not see a global equivalent #define PAGE_COUNT(x) (((x) + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT) -- Dominique
