上面的 iotable_init函数完成IO映射。
结构体static struct map_desc定义在asm/io.h中
struct map_desc {
unsigned long virtual; //映射后的虚拟地址
unsigned long pfn; //被映射的物理地址所在页帧号
unsigned long length;//被映射的IO资源长度
unsigned int type; //IO类型
};
这里比较难理解的是“映射后的虚拟地址virtual”，这个是自己定义的，可以修改，但是不能和已经映射的重复。
可以参看内核文档Documentationarmmemory.txt，其中描述如下：
VMALLOC_START VMALLOC_END-1 vmalloc() / ioremap() space.
Memory returned by vmalloc/ioremap will
be dynamically placed in this region.
VMALLOC_START may be based upon the value
of the high_memory variable.
VMALLOC_START 定义在arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h中
/*
* Just any arbitrary offset to the start of the vmalloc VM area: the
* current 8MB value just means that there will be a 8MB "hole" after the
* physical memory until the kernel virtual memory starts. That means that
* any out-of-bounds memory accesses will hopefully be caught.
* The vmalloc() routines leaves a hole of 4kB between each vmalloced
* area for the same reason. ;)
*
* Note that platforms may override VMALLOC_START, but they must provide
* VMALLOC_END. VMALLOC_END defines the (exclusive) limit of this space,
* which may not overlap IO space.
*/
