Hi Christophe and Nicholas=EF=BC=8C for ppc32=EF=BC=8C I think we need ch= eck the upper=20 limit, eg,=C2=A0 addr >=3D PAGE_OFFSET && addr < high_memory arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c:=C2=A0 high_memory =3D (void *) __va(max_low_pfn *=20 PAGE_SIZE); for ppc32 max_low_pfn is the upper low memory pfn,=C2=A0 and For ppc64,=20 high_memory is the max memory pfn, it looks good too, correct me if I'm wrong, if the=20 above check is ok, I will send a new v3,=C2=A0 thanks. > > >> The checks added to __pa actually don't prevent vmalloc memory from >> being passed to it either on 64s, only a more basic test. > That's correct.
