No, highmem really isn't nearly enough. Imagine you have (like I do) a system with 36 bits of IPA space. Create a VM with 8GB of RAM (which means the low-end of IPA space is already 9GB). Obviously, highmem=true here. With the current code, we will try to expose this PCI MMIO range, which falls way out of the IPA space (you need at least 40 bits of IPA to even cover it with the smallest configuration). highmem really is a control that says 'things may live above 4GB'. It doesn't say *how far* above 4GB it can be placed. Which is what I am trying to address. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
