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 | |
