Hi Mauricio, You?re not missing anything. It would be done this way, if the memzone parameter wasn?t const. But it is const, so we have to find the memzone in config to edit it.

Why to calculate idx?, Just doing "mz->ioremap_addr = mz->phys_addr" would not be sufficient? After all, the goal is to mark the memzone as used by ivshmem to forbid freeing it. Please corrected if I am missing something. Thank you, Mauricio Vasquez,
