Does anyone know the simplest way to map a kernel virtual address (like
a pointer to an m_blk buffer), to a physical address (suitable for use
by a DMA controller)?

The *right* way is to use the (2.5) DMA setup routines:Quote:>Does anyone know the simplest way to map a kernel virtual address (like

ddi_dma_alloc_handle
ddi_dma_buf_bind_handle
ddi_dma_addr_bind_handle
ddi_dma_nextcookie
ddi_dma_numwin
ddi_dma_getwin
ddi_dma_unbind_handle
ddi_dma_free_handle
ddi_dma_[buf,addr]_bind_handle will return you the first DMA cookie.
In it you'll find the physical address for the *first* portion of
your object.
You'll need to read up on DMA in the DDK to make this all work right. (-:

1. Map physical address to virtual address
Hi there,
Can any one help me how do i map a physical address under
1 MB (e.g. 0xD0000) to virtual address in my device driver?
Because the driver use dual port memory to communicate with hardware.
It works well in x86 machine but Alpha machine when driver acess the
address without mapping.Actually the driver got page fault when
run in a Alpha machine.
Thanks in advance.
