In newer kernels, it looks like you can't use /dev/pmem0 for DAX unless it's marked as being DAX capable. This appears to require CONFIG_NVDIMM_PFN. But when I tried to build a kernel with that configured, I get the following BUG: [ 0.000000] Linux version 4.18.0-rc4-xfstests-00031-g7c2d77aa7d80 (tytso@cwcc) (gcc version 7.3.0 (Debian 7.3.0-27)) #460 SMP Mon Jul 30 19:38:44 EDT 2018 [ 0.000000] Command line: systemd.show_status=auto systemd.log_level=crit root=/dev/vda console=ttyS0,115200 cmd=maint fstesttz=America/New_York fstesttyp=ext4 fstestapi=1.4 memmap=4G!9G memmap=9G!14G ...
