Apparently, the vm_start values is for some reason coming as 0 when it

An update: The vm_start 0 seems to be expected. I checked the values with printf()s.

I have posted this on Twitter, and am considering hiring a kernel consultant to help if I am unable to do this on my own.

So I am guessing this line (Line 231) is incorrect:

     pa = sg_dma_address(sgl);

Hi Neel,

sg_dma_address() is zero, because the memory hasn't been loaded.

You need to handle two cases there:

When r->iobase is -1 and when it is not.

I suspect you should add r->iobase to the sg_dma_address() only and only when it is non -1.

Also, there is a superfluous "pa = " in the beginning of the function.
