Réf. : Re: Réf. : RE: mmap : please help !

Hello Jean-Christophe,

That's right, I verify all the useful parameters in my driver and
everything seems OK.
But, the real question is : if you use the /dev/mem (with open() and mmap
()), could you use, in the user space, the pointer returned by the mmap
function to access the physical memory or do you have to use read/write (on
the file descriptor) to access physical memory because i haven't the same
results according to the used method.
Thanks for 'od' but i haven't in my packages.

Sophie.

As the /dev/map_mc is your custom driver it should be fairly easy for
you to check the parameters you pass to remap_page_range().

try "od"
