From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2002 15:55:35 +0000 (GMT) That is incorrect. The warning occurs because someone made bogus changes to the vesa driver without understanding what was going on. The vesa frame buffer returned by the BIOS is a physical cpu address not a bus address and nothing to do with magic PCI mappings.
There were no changes made, in fact the VESA driver by your own definition was buggy before my changes went in. :-) It was using bus_to_virt and virt_to_bus all along Alan. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
