As i understood whenver a user space program is run it is represented in kernel using VMA which is managed by struct mm_struct and whenever the program is trying to read/write to a memory location in user space it will be directed to physical address using PAGE TABLE translation done by struct mm_struct(done in kernel space).Am i right? Suppose a simple driver wants the user to directly access its device memory then we use mmap.This mmap associates a set of user space virtual address with device driver memory and it is done by creating kernel page tables for the user space virtual addresses.Is the page table translation done everytime whenever user space does read/write to the device memory?? In .nopage function call we return the page associated with the physical address which the user wants to associate with user space virtual address.Is the page address returned by the nopage function same as seen by the user or will it be converted to user space virtual address(range between 0-2 GB)? Thanks for reading.

Can you please not post the same stuff twice? Be patient, people do reply to queries here quite often, why show this desperation?

The reason i sent the mail twice was due to below mail which i am recieving.However sorry for causing any trouble. I am getting this erro whenever i am trying to send mail to kernelnewbie. The attached message had PERMANENT fatal delivery errors! After one or more unsuccessful delivery attempts the attached message has been removed from the mail queue on this server. The number and frequency of delivery attempts are determined by local configuration parameters.

hi: 2011/2/19 Rajat Sharma <fs.rajat@gmail.com>:
Even I keep on seeing these errors, everytime I post anything on kernelnewbies. Initially I kept ignoring, but looks I am not alone to face this.
As a resolution to this, we need to remove id "amit@fibcom.com" from kernelnewbies subscribers.
I saw this mail too. It seems this guy quit his company and the mail server of the company told people who sent mail to him. Regards, miloody
