Re: [Dri-devel] PPC Lockup (ati-pcigart-branch)

I've narrowed down the problem by modifying the code like this:

        for ( i = entry->handle, j = 0 ; j < pages ; i += PAGE_SIZE, j++ ) {
                printk("i: %08lx\n", i);
                pgd = pgd_offset_k( i );
                printk("pgd: %08lx\n", pgd);
                pmd = pmd_offset( pgd, i );
                printk("pmd: %08lx\n", pmd);
                pte = pte_offset( pmd, i );
                printk("pte: %08lx\n", pte);

The kernel output is as follows:

[drm] drm_sg_alloc
i: ca292000
pgd: c014dca0
pmd: c014dca0
pte: 00000a48

Which means that *pgd == 0, which is very odd indeed, unless of course
you have run off the end of the vmalloc'd area (I assume you haven't).
What is the value of the symbol swapper_pg_dir in this kernel?
Have you tried accessing the vmalloc'd area?  Where did you get the
kernel source?

I hope to get to have a good look at the drm code myself shortly.
