> Tha patch implements SCM async-flush hcall and sets the > ND_REGION_ASYNC capability when the platform device tree > has "ibm,async-flush-required" set. So, you are reusing the existing ND_REGION_ASYNC flag for the hypercall based async flush with device tree discovery? Out of curiosity, does virtio based flush work in ppc? Was just thinking if we can reuse virtio based flush present in virtio-pmem? Or anything else we are trying to achieve here?
