9	  Generic support for non-volatile memory devices including
10	  ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources.  On platforms that define an
11	  NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm
12	  bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)
13	  namespaces (/dev/pmemX). A PMEM namespace refers to a
14	  memory resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX
15	  (see CONFIG_DAX).

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
31	  Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst).  This driver converts
32	  these persistent memory ranges into block devices that are
33	  capable of DAX (direct-access) file system mappings.  See
34	  Documentation/driver-api/nvdimm/nvdimm.rst for more details.

50	  update semantics for persistent memory devices, so that

52	  guarantee that typical disks provide) can continue to do so.
53	  The BTT manifests itself as an alternate personality for an
54	  NVDIMM namespace, i.e. a namespace can be in raw mode pmemX,

127	help
128	  KMSAN, and other memory debug facilities, increase the size of
129	  'struct page' to contain extra metadata. This collides with
130	  the NVDIMM capability to store a potentially
131	  larger-than-"System RAM" size 'struct page' array in a
132	  reservation of persistent memory rather than limited /
133	  precious DRAM. However, that reservation needs to persist for
134	  the life of the given NVDIMM namespace. If you are using KMSAN
135	  to debug an issue unrelated to NVDIMMs or DAX then say N to this
136	  option. Otherwise, say Y but understand that any namespaces
137	  (with the page array stored pmem) created with this build of
