Synopsis

void __iomem * ioremap_nocache (resource_size_t offset,
 unsigned long size);
 

Arguments

bus address of the memory

size

size of the resource to map

Description

ioremap performs a platform specific sequence of operations to make bus memory CPU accessible via the readb/readw/readl/writeb/ writew/writel functions and the other mmio helpers. The returned address is not guaranteed to be usable directly as a virtual address.

If the area you are trying to map is a PCI BAR you should have a look at pci_iomap.
