7 Generic support for non-volatile memory devices including
8 ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources. On platforms that define an
9 NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm
10 bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)
11 namespaces (/dev/pmemX) and BLK (sliding mmio window(s))
5212e11f

12 namespaces (/dev/ndblkX.Y). A PMEM namespace refers to a
13 memory resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX
14 (see CONFIG_DAX). A BLK namespace refers to an NVDIMM control
15 region which exposes an mmio register set for windowed access
16 mode to non-volatile memory.

26 Memory ranges for PMEM are described by either an NFIT
27 (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table, see CONFIG_NFIT_ACPI), a
28 non-standard OEM-specific E820 memory type (type-12, see
29 CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY), or it is manually specified by the
30 'memmap=nn[KMG]!ss[KMG]' kernel command line (see
8c27ceff 31 Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst). This driver converts

33 capable of DAX (direct-access) file system mappings. See
34 Documentation/nvdimm/nvdimm.txt for more details.

62 The Block Translation Table (BTT) provides atomic sector
63 update semantics for persistent memory devices, so that
64 applications that rely on sector writes not being torn (a
65 guarantee that typical disks provide) can continue to do so.
66 The BTT manifests itself as an alternate personality for an
67 NVDIMM namespace, i.e. a namespace can be in raw mode (pmemX,
68 ndblkX.Y, etc...), or 'sectored' mode, (pmemXs, ndblkX.Ys,
69 etc...).

82 Map persistent memory, i.e. advertise it to the memory
83 management sub-system. By default persistent memory does
84 not support direct I/O, RDMA, or any other usage that
85 requires a 'struct page' to mediate an I/O request. This
86 driver allocates and initializes the infrastructure needed
87 to support those use cases.
