ioremap

[Srinivas Murthy]

Hi,
 Why does ioremap() not allow normal system RAM to be mapped in using
ioremap().

 We have a need to access a portion of the normal system RAM to be mapped in
non-cached.

 To simulate, I used kmalloc() to allocate the memory and then passed the
virt_to_phys() of the memory to ioremap() but then noticed that ioremap()
wont allow it.

 Is there another way to access this memory non-cached?

Regards,
_Srinivas
