For example, a high bandwidth memory pool. The 42 indication from platform firmware is meant to reserve the 43 memory from typical usage by default. This driver creates 44 device-dax instances for these memory ranges, and that also 45 enables the possibility to assign them to the DEV_DAX_KMEM 46 driver to override the reservation and add them to kernel 47 "System RAM" pool. 48 49 Say M if unsure. 50 51config DEV_DAX_KMEM 52 tristate "KMEM DAX: volatile-use of persistent memory" 53 default DEV_DAX 54 depends on DEV_DAX 55 depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG # for add_memory() and friends 56 help 57 Support access to persistent, or other performance 58 differentiated memory as if it were System RAM.
