Question on Virtual Address to Physcial Address, need help

Hi

    How can I get physics address from a virtual address in kernel space?
    For low mem I can simply use virt_to_phys macro, and for those memory
been mapped
by ioremap, I try to walk through the pagetable by following code on arm
platform:


static unsigned long himem_virt_to_phys(unsigned long virt)
{

 pmd_t * pmd;
 pte_t * pte;
 unsigned long phys_addr;

 pmd = ( pmd_t * ) (pgd_offset_k(virt));

 pte = pte_offset_kernel(pmd, virt & ~PGDIR_MASK);

 phys_addr = ( pte_val(*pte) & PAGE_MASK ) | ( virt & ~PAGE_MASK);

 printk("--- pmd addr = %lx, pte addr = %lx \n",pmd,pte);
 printk("--- pte content = %lx\n",pte_val(*pte));
 printk("------ virt = %lx, phys= %lx \n",virt, phys_addr);

 return phys_addr;

}

    it did work, but when I try to get the physical address of a local var
say i,
it won't work! Why ? Is there some thing I missing?

the code i test the func is as following:

//---------------------
 int i;

 unsigned long virt;

 virt = (unsigned long)ioremap(0x10018000,0x10000);

 himem_virt_to_phys(virt);

 i = 28;
 printk("&i = %x\n", &i);
 himem_virt_to_phys((unsigned long)&i);

//---------------------


and the outcome:


--- pmd addr = c0007120, pte addr = c3fdba9c
--- pte content = 100180a3
------ virt = c48a7000, phys= 10018000

&i = c3d99f64
--- pmd addr = c00070f0, pte addr = c3c00e64
--- pte content = e51b5084
------ virt = c3d99f64, phys= e51b5f64

this is not right , since pte's last bit is not 1 ,
and actually my sdram mem is on 0x1xxxxxxx
not 0xExxxxxxx


Any ideas ? Thx
