Hi,
I need to convert a user virtual address to its corresponding physical address. I know that if the virtual address is from kernel, we could use virt_to_phys. Is there a similar helper function to convert user virtual address.?
Hi Fredrick,
Please elaborate the purpose, User-space application allowed to have virtual address upto 3GB, assuming 1:3 address space split. And its not mandatory for all user-space address to be valid and to have all user-space address to have a valid physical address mapping. Thanks, Chetan Thanks,
Fredrick
