ACPI 6.2 adds support for named methods to access the label storage area of an NVDIMM. We prefer these new methods if available and otherwise fallback to the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL _DSMs. The kernel ioctls, ND_IOCTL_{GET,SET}_CONFIG_{SIZE,DATA}, remain generic and the driver translates the 'package' payloads into the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL 'buffer' format to maintain compatibility with existing userspace and keep the output buffer parsing code in the driver common. The output payloads are mostly compatible save for the 'label area locked' status that moves from the 'config_size' (_LSI) command to the 'config_read' (_LSR) command status.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
