Public bug reported: The support for Intel NVDIMM technology requires both kernel and userspace components. The kernel components have landed in 4.15 and will be available in Bionic. In order for users to take advantage of NVDIMMs in their deployments, the following userspace packages are also needed in Bionic:
Libraries for accessing and manipulating NV Memory devices: libpmem -- basic pmem operations like flushing libpmemblk, libpmemlog, libpmemobj -- pmem transactions libvmem, libvmmalloc -- volatile use of pmem libpmempool -- persistent memory pool management librpmem -- remote access to persistent memory (EXPERIMENTAL) Source Code: https://github.com/pmem/nvml Tools for management of NV devices and device pools. pmempool -- standalone tool for off-line pool managementDescription: Source Code: https://github.com/pmem/pmdk/releases/tag/1.3.1 ndctl -- Utility library for managing the libnvdimm (non-volatile memory device) sub-system in the Linux kernel.
