Subject: [PATCH v2 01/20] e820, efi: add ACPI 6.0 persistent memory types
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2015 14:24:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150428182417.35812.92834.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150428181203.35812.60474.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com>

ACPI 6.0 formalizes e820-type-7 and efi-type-14 as persistent memory.
Mark it "reserved" and allow it to be claimed by a persistent memory
device driver.

This definition is in addition to the Linux kernel's existing type-12
definition that was recently added in support of shipping platforms with
NVDIMM support that predate ACPI 6.0 (which now classifies type-12 as
OEM reserved).  We may choose to exploit this wealth of definitions for
NVDIMMs to differentiate E820_PRAM (type-12) from E820_PMEM (type-7).
One potential differentiation is that PMEM is not backed by struct page
by default in contrast to PRAM.  For now, they are effectively treated
as aliases by the mm.

Note, /proc/iomem can be consulted for differentiating legacy
"Persistent RAM" E820_PRAM vs standard "Persistent I/O Memory"
E820_PMEM.
