440GX: mapping PCI address

Hi,

checkout
arch/ppc/mm/pgtable.c
there you'll find the ioremap function which is used to remap physical
addresses. This function calls internaly fixup_big_physaddr(), defined in
arch/ppc/kernel/ibm44x_common.c
This fixup_big_physaddr() adjusts some 32bit addresses to some corresponding
36bit addresses, which can be mapped by the kernel by calling ioremap64.
Your example:
Calling mmap with the address 0x80002000 (see also include/asm-ppc/ibm44x.h)
will map the PCI area, by trapping this 0x80002000 and making a 36bit address
out of it. There a 3 "trap" areas defined:
/*
 * 36-bit trap ranges
 */
#define PPC44x_IO_LO            0x40000000
#define PPC44x_IO_HI            0x40001000
#define PPC44x_PCICFG_LO        0x0ec00000
#define PPC44x_PCICFG_HI        0x0ec7ffff
#define PPC44x_PCIMEM_LO        0x80002000
#define PPC44x_PCIMEM_HI        0xffffffff

Hope this helps,
  Gerhard
