Could it be that you meant "PAGE_SIZE" instead of "PAGE_OFFSET"? Because the current version is "slightly" broken, tagging any address in user land as invalid. And if this test was meant to catch NULL page accesses early, is the intention to cope with all those current i-pipe patches that do not yet include the discussed domain switch on non-root faults? If yes, this test would be a workaround for legacy code and should not become default (pure overhead for later versions). Last question: We need this for the other archs as well, don't we? Jan
