16 Support raw access to differentiated (persistence, bandwidth,
17 latency...) memory via an mmap(2) capable character
18 device. Platform firmware or a device driver may identify a
19 platform memory resource that is differentiated from the
20 baseline memory pool. Mappings of a /dev/daxX.Y device impose
21 restrictions that make the mapping behavior deterministic.

41 Support access to persistent memory as if it were RAM. This
42 allows easier use of persistent memory by unmodified
43 applications.

45 To use this feature, a DAX device must be unbound from the
46 device_dax driver (PMEM DAX) and bound to this kmem driver
47 on each boot.

56 Older versions of the libdaxctl library expect to find all
57 device-dax instances under /sys/class/dax. If libdaxctl in
58 your distribution is older than v58 say M, otherwise say N.
