persistent memory device that allows a guest VM to use DAX mechanisms to
access a host-file with host-page-cache. It arranges for MAP_SYNC to
be disabled and instead triggers a host fsync() when a 'write-cache
flush' command is sent to the virtual disk device.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Primarily just the virtio_pmem driver:
- virtio_pmem
The new virtio_pmem facility introduces a paravirtualized
persistent memory device that allows a guest VM to use DAX
mechanisms to access a host-file with host-page-cache. It arranges
for MAP_SYNC to be disabled and instead triggers a host fsync()
when a 'write-cache flush' command is sent to the virtual disk
device.

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.
