Several problems.
That family is documented for RFIC 0x0201.
No NVDIMM-N platform supports that DSM family.
When platforms do support 0x0201, some will also support NVDIMM-N. Since
opcodes are not documented, how do would they not step on each other?
I don't think that works at all.
I'm confused there is no correlation between FIC and DSM family,
Page 7 of version 1.3 of your DSM spec says:
Platforms that have the _DSM interface implemented, as outlined in this
section, can support a NVDIMM region with Region Format Interface Code
(RFIC) of 0x0201.
Other DSM documents reference RFIC 0x0101.
at least not one Linux enforces.
That is true, but FW developers aren't being as loose.
Yes, they are. We have 3 0x101 DSM families.
And they're all implemented for 0x101 devices.
