5	help
6	  CXL is a bus that is electrically compatible with PCI Express, but
7	  layers three protocols on that signalling (CXL.io, CXL.cache, and
8	  CXL.mem). The CXL.cache protocol allows devices to hold cachelines
9	  locally, the CXL.mem protocol allows devices to be fully coherent
10	  memory targets, the CXL.io protocol is equivalent to PCI Express.
11	  Say 'y' to enable support for the configuration and management of
12	  devices supporting these protocols.

18	default CXL_BUS
19	help
20	  The CXL specification defines a "CXL memory device" sub-class in the
21	  PCI "memory controller" base class of devices. Device's identified by
22	  this class code provide support for volatile and / or persistent
23	  memory to be mapped into the system address map (Host-managed Device
24	  Memory (HDM)).
25
26	  Say 'y/m' to enable a driver that will attach to CXL memory expander
27	  devices enumerated by the memory device class code for configuration
28	  and management primarily via the mailbox interface. See Chapter 2.3
29	  Type 3 CXL Device in the CXL 2.0 specification for more details.

31	  If unsure say 'm'.

33config CXL_MEM_RAW_COMMANDS
34	bool "RAW Command Interface for Memory Devices"
35	depends on CXL_PCI
36	help
37	  Enable CXL RAW command interface.
38
39	  The CXL driver ioctl interface may assign a kernel ioctl command
40	  number for each specification defined opcode. At any given point in
41	  time the number of opcodes that the specification defines and a device
42	  may implement may exceed the kernel's set of associated ioctl function
43	  numbers. The mismatch is either by omission, specification is too new,
44	  or by design. When prototyping new hardware, or developing / debugging
45	  the driver it is useful to be able to submit any possible command to
46	  the hardware, even commands that may crash the kernel due to their
47	  potential impact to memory currently in use by the kernel.
48
49	  If developing CXL hardware or the driver say Y, otherwise say N.

56	help
57	  Enable support for host managed device memory (HDM) resources
58	  published by a platform's ACPI CXL memory layout description.  See
59	  Chapter 9.14.1 CXL Early Discovery Table (CEDT) in the CXL 2.0
60	  specification, and CXL Fixed Memory Window Structures (CEDT.CFMWS)
61	  (https://www.computeexpresslink.org/spec-landing). The CXL core
62	  consumes these resource to publish the root of a cxl_port decode
63	  hierarchy to map regions that represent System RAM, or Persistent
64	  Memory regions to be managed by LIBNVDIMM.
65
66	  If unsure say 'm'.

71	default CXL_BUS
72	help
73	  In addition to typical memory resources a platform may also advertise
74	  support for persistent memory attached via CXL. This support is
75	  managed via a bridge driver from CXL to the LIBNVDIMM system
76	  subsystem. Say 'y/m' to enable support for enumerating and
77	  provisioning the persistent memory capacity of CXL memory expanders.
78
79	  If unsure say 'm'.

81config CXL_MEM
82	tristate "CXL: Memory Expansion"
83	depends on CXL_PCI
84	default CXL_BUS
85	help
86	  The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System
87	  RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the
88	  memory were attached to the typical CPU memory controller. This is
89	  known as HDM "Host-managed Device Memory".
90
91	  Say 'y/m' to enable a driver that will attach to CXL.mem devices for
92	  memory expansion and control of HDM. See Chapter 9.13 in the CXL 2.0
93	  specification for a detailed description of HDM.
94
95	  If unsure say 'm'.
