UIO driver for framebuffer

[vijay baskar <cn.vijaibaskar@gdatech.co.in>]

Hi all,

I have written a uio driver for framebuffer device. I added device 
specific register memory in uio.mem. I also added DMA param memory in 
uio.mem to perform DMA from userspace. Also video RAM 
<http://fixunix.com/#> was mapped in kernel space using 
dma_alloc_coherent() and a logical address was obtained. This logical 
address was also added in uio.mem with memtype as UIO_MEM_LOGICAL 
because i can fill video ram from userspace.Read and write to this DMA 
param memory from userspace is not having any effect. Also video RAM 
memory that i filled up is not getting written to the framebuffer device 
when DMA is started. Also one more info that i noted was that values 
assigned to logical addresses in kernel space are not reflected in 
userspace after mmap. The values in userspace show different values 
compared to that in kernel space.
This is a bit confusing for me. Why is this happening?? Have I missed 
any information?? Am i on the right path??
