From: Kai Jiang <Kai.Jiang@freescale.com>

To support >32-bit physical addresses for UIO_MEM_PHYS type we need to
extend the width of 'addr' in struct uio_mem.  Numerous platforms like
embedded PPC, ARM, and X86 have support for systems with larger physical
address than logical.

Since 'addr' may contain a physical, logical, or virtual address the
easiest solution is to just change the type to 'unsigned long long'
regardless of which type is utilized.

For physical address we can support up to a 44-bit physical address on a
typical 32-bit system as we utilize remap_pfn_range() for the mapping of
the memory region and pfn's are represnted by shifting the address by
the page size (typically 4k).

No. There's phys_addr_t for that purpose, defined in include/linux/types.h.
Please use that.

Thanks,

Do we believe phys_addr_t is always greater than or equal to size need for logical & virtual addresses?

Yes:

#ifdef CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
typedef u64 phys_addr_t;
#else
typedef u32 phys_addr_t;
#endif

config PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
        def_bool 64BIT || ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT

This isn't really an answer to the question.  This just says that
phys_addr_t can be 64-bit.  I don't see anywhere in the kernel that we
*enforce* or *require* that sizeof(phys_addr_t) >= sizeof(void *).

You deleted this part:

config PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
       def_bool 64BIT || ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT

which enforces that PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is enabled if 64BIT is set.

It still doesn't protect against 64-bit architectures not setting 64BIT,
but they have worse problems ;-)

On 32-bit platforms, void * is 32-bit, and phys_addr_t is either
32-bit or 64-bit.
On 64-bit platforms (which are required to set 64BIT), void * is 64-bit,
just like phys_addr_t.

Ok, I didn't catch that before, but it makes sense now.  Thanks.
