[PATCH 4/5] Add address translation

From: Zachary Amsden
Date: Wed Aug 24 2005 - 13:44:50 EST


Add a helper function to convert an arbitrary mapped virtual address to a
physical frame number. Adapted from code by Chris Wright, added support
for large pages.

Because of the placement, this needs to be a macro; pgd_offset_k requires
init_mm to be defined, and getting the include files right seemed more
complicated than a macroized implementation.

A more proper location would be in asm/page.h, but that gets confounded
by the use of pgd_offset_k() again.
