It just blindly goes "vmemmap + pfn" which is asking for trouble, in particular when the physical RAM layout really is sparse. Maybe it's enough to add a pfn_valid() check here? If pfn_valid() means there is a vmemmap translation setup for that page struct too, it would work. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
