The newly added code mixes up phys_addr_t/resource_size_t with dma_addr_t and void pointers, as seen from these compiler warning: drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c: In function '_base_get_chain_phys': drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:235:21: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast] base_chain_phys = (void *)ioc->chip_phys + MPI_FRAME_START_OFFSET + ^ drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c: In function '_clone_sg_entries': drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:427:20: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast] sgel->Address = (dma_addr_t)dst_addr_phys; ^ drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:438:7: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast] (dma_addr_t)buff_ptr_phys; ^ drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:444:10: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast] (dma_addr_t)buff_ptr_phys; Both dma_addr_t and phys_addr_t may be wider than a pointer, so we must avoid the conversion to pointer types. This also helps readability. A second problem is treating MMIO addresses from a 'struct resource' as addresses that can be used for DMA on that device. In almost all cases, those are the same, but on some of the more obscure architectures, PCI memory address 0 is mapped into the CPU address space at a nonzero offset. I don't have a good fix for that, so I'm adding a comment here, plus a WARN_ON() that triggers whenever the phys_addr_t number is outside of the low 32-bit address space and causes a straight overflow when assigned to the 32-bit sgel->Address.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
