[PATCH v4 13/14] block: enable dax for raw block devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If an application wants exclusive access to all of the persistent memory
provided by an NVDIMM namespace it can use this raw-block-dax facility
to forgo establishing a filesystem.  This capability is targeted
primarily to hypervisors wanting to provision persistent memory for
guests.  It can be disabled / enabled dynamically via the new BLKDAXSET
ioctl.
