Pankaj Gupta 6e84200c0a virtio-pmem: Add virtio pmem driver
This patch adds virtio-pmem driver for KVM guest.

Guest reads the persistent memory range information from
Qemu over VIRTIO and registers it on nvdimm_bus. It also
creates a nd_region object with the persistent memory
range information so that existing 'nvdimm/pmem' driver
can reserve this into system memory map. This way
'virtio-pmem' driver uses existing functionality of pmem
driver to register persistent memory compatible for DAX
capable filesystems.

This also provides function to perform guest flush over
VIRTIO from 'pmem' driver when userspace performs flush
on DAX memory range.

config VIRTIO
tristate
---help---
This option is selected by any driver which implements the virtio
bus, such as CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI, CONFIG_VIRTIO_MMIO, CONFIG_RPMSG
or CONFIG_S390_GUEST.
menuconfig VIRTIO_MENU
bool "Virtio drivers"

if VIRTIO_MENU
config VIRTIO_PCI
tristate "PCI driver for virtio devices"
depends on PCI
select VIRTIO
---help---
This driver provides support for virtio based paravirtual device
drivers over PCI. This requires that your VMM has appropriate PCI
virtio backends. Most QEMU based VMMs should support these devices
(like KVM or Xen).
If unsure, say M.
config VIRTIO_PCI_LEGACY
bool "Support for legacy virtio draft 0.9.X and older devices"
default y
depends on VIRTIO_PCI
---help---
Virtio PCI Card 0.9.X Draft (circa 2014) and older device support.
This option enables building a transitional driver, supporting
both devices conforming to Virtio 1 specification, and legacy devices.
If disabled, you get a slightly smaller, non-transitional driver,
with no legacy compatibility.
So look out into your driveway. Do you have a flying car? If
so, you can happily disable this option and virtio will not
break. Otherwise, leave it set. Unless you're testing what
life will be like in The Future.
If unsure, say Y.
config VIRTIO_PMEM

This driver provides access to virtio-pmem devices, storage devices
that are mapped into the physical address space - similar to NVDIMMs
- with a virtio-based flushing interface.
If unsure, say Y.

Allow virtio-mmio devices instantiation via the kernel command line

address in particular) can crash your system - you have been warned.
