| 8 | Generic support for non-volatile memory devices including |
| 9 | ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources. On platforms that define an |
| 10 | NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm |
| 11 | bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory) |
| 12 | namespaces (/dev/pmemX) and BLK (sliding mmio window(s)) |
| 13 | namespaces (/dev/ndblkX.Y). A PMEM namespace refers to a |
| 14 | memory resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX |
| 15 | (see CONFIG_DAX). A BLK namespace refers to an NVDIMM control |
| 16 | region which exposes an mmio register set for windowed access |
| 17 | mode to non-volatile memory. |

| 32 | 'memmap=nn[KMG]!ss[KMG]' kernel command line (see |
| 33 | Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst). This driver converts |
| 34 | these persistent memory ranges into block devices that are |
| 35 | capable of DAX (direct-access) file system mappings. See |
