While a memX device on /sys/bus/cxl represents a CXL memory expander
control interface, a pmemX device represents the persistent memory
sub-functionality. It bridges the CXL subystem to the libnvdimm nmemX
control interface.
With this skeleton ndctl can now see persistent memory devices on a
"CXL" bus. Later patches add support for translating libnvdimm native
commands to CXL commands.
# ndctl list -BDiu -b CXL
{
"provider":"CXL",
"dev":"ndbus1",
"dimms":[
{
"dev":"nmem1",
"state":"disabled"
},
{
"dev":"nmem0",
"state":"disabled"
}
]
}
Given nvdimm_bus_unregister() removes all devices on an ndbus0 the
cxl_pmem infrastructure needs to arrange ->remove() to be triggered on
cxl_nvdimm devices to keep their enabled state synchronized with the
registration state of their corresponding device on the nvdimm_bus. In
other words, always arrange for cxl_nvdimm_driver.remove() to unregister
nvdimms from an nvdimm_bus ahead of the bus being unregistered.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
