2008-09-14generic: make PFN_PHYS explicitly return phys_addr_tJeremy Fitzhardinge
PFN_PHYS, as its name suggests, turns a pfn into a physical address. However, it is a macro which just operates on its argument without modifying its type. pfns are typed unsigned long, but an unsigned long may not be long enough to hold a physical address (32-bit systems with more than 32 bits of physcial address). Make sure we cast to phys_addr_t to return a complete result. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2006-03-27[PATCH] unify PFN_* macrosDave Hansen
Just about every architecture defines some macros to do operations on pfns. They're all virtually identical. This patch consolidates all of them. One minor glitch is that at least i386 uses them in a very skeletal header file. To keep away from #include dependency hell, I stuck the new definitions in a new, isolated header. Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit. It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before the arithmetic is done. This has been posted to that sh64 maintainers and the development list. Compiles on x86, x86_64, ia64 and ppc64.
