Hi Geert, for hwregs_present(), the exception fixup will handle any access error (through send_fault_sig()), so this should continue to work. Why the special handling of VM_IO pages? Maybe hp300 had marked all IO register pages VM_IO to distinguish IO faults from VM faults... The only other area I can imagine this might have an impact is the Mac's pseudo-DMA - FInn might want to give this some testing.mac_scsi.c and mac_esp.c don't use ioremap(). They rely on head.S: mmu_map_eq #0x50000000,#0x03000000,%d3 Having said that, I will run some tests if you still think it necessary.
No need for test then, thanks! Cheers, Michael
