6 Generic support for non-volatile memory devices including
7 ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources. On platforms that define an
8 NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm
9 bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)
10 namespaces (/dev/pmemX) and BLK (sliding mmio window(s))
11 namespaces (/dev/ndX). A PMEM namespace refers to a memory
12 resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX (see
13 CONFIG_DAX). A BLK namespace refers to an NVDIMM control
14 region which exposes an mmio register set for windowed
15 access mode to non-volatile memory.

24 Memory ranges for PMEM are described by either an NFIT
25 (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table, see CONFIG_NFIT_ACPI), a
26 non-standard OEM-specific E820 memory type (type-12, see
27 CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY), or it is manually specified by the
28 'memmap=nn[KMG]!ss[KMG]' kernel command line (see
29 Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt). This driver converts
30 these persistent memory ranges into block devices that are
31 capable of DAX (direct-access) file system mappings. See
32 Documentation/nvdimm/nvdimm.txt for more details.
