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.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of
21	  "System RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent
22	  as if the memory was attached to the typical CPU memory
23	  controller.
24
25	  Say 'y/m' to enable a driver that will attach to CXL.mem devices for
26	  configuration and management primarily via the mailbox interface. See
27	  Chapter 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device in the CXL 2.0 specification for more
28	  details.

30	  If unsure say 'm'.

32config CXL_MEM_RAW_COMMANDS
33	bool "RAW Command Interface for Memory Devices"
34	depends on CXL_MEM
35	help
36	  Enable CXL RAW command interface.
37
38	  The CXL driver ioctl interface may assign a kernel ioctl command
39	  number for each specification defined opcode. At any given point in
40	  time the number of opcodes that the specification defines and a device
41	  may implement may exceed the kernel's set of associated ioctl function
42	  numbers. The mismatch is either by omission, specification is too new,
43	  or by design. When prototyping new hardware, or developing / debugging
44	  the driver it is useful to be able to submit any possible command to
45	  the hardware, even commands that may crash the kernel due to their
46	  potential impact to memory currently in use by the kernel.
47
48	  If developing CXL hardware or the driver say Y, otherwise say N.

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

67config CXL_PMEM
68	tristate "CXL PMEM: Persistent Memory Support"
69	depends on LIBNVDIMM
70	default CXL_BUS
71	help
72	  In addition to typical memory resources a platform may also advertise
73	  support for persistent memory attached via CXL. This support is
74	  managed via a bridge driver from CXL to the LIBNVDIMM system
75	  subsystem. Say 'y/m' to enable support for enumerating and
76	  provisioning the persistent memory capacity of CXL memory expanders.
77
78	  If unsure say 'm'.
