Hi,

You are right, I got confused about those addresses, my bad. At least now I know that config is the correct one and I don't have to tinker with it. I'm back to a kernel panic from the inmate when booting the cell. It's similar to the one I had earlier, not sure yet of what the problem may be.

Great, we're a step further.

Okay, here should be all memory regions listed. My non-root Linux in my Qemu VM, for example, shows here:

Are you absolutely sure, that you have no further modifications in Jailhouse or the Linux loader?

Actually, in your case, there should be e820 as well (instead of e801). Go to the Linux kernel sources, have a look at arch/x86/kernel/e820.c:1279

and Jailhouse's jailhouse-cell-linux:638.

jailhouse-cell-linux fills information of all memory regions into the zero page. Would you please instrument code (Linux/Jailhouse) to see where those regions are not parsed?

    Just tested cell-linux in a qemu machine, there it works, with pretty
    similar addresses, which got me confused.

    After double-checking it: 0xffb.e00 is *not* at the edge of low mem:

    Low mem is 0x000.000 -- 0x0ff.fff
    Comm region is 0x100.000 -- 0x100.fff

    0xffb.e00 is (obviously) way above.

    Please try to set your high mem's .virt_start to 0x200000. Then,
    0xffbe00 is offsetted ~16MB inside your highmem, and it should work!

    IOW:

    /* high RAM */
    {
    .phys_start = 0x42300000,
    .virt_start = 0x200000,
    .size = 0x11000000,
    .flags = JAILHOUSE_MEM_READ | JAILHOUSE_MEM_WRITE |
    JAILHOUSE_MEM_EXECUTE |
    JAILHOUSE_MEM_LOADABLE,
    },

    Thanks
    Ralf
