[ Upstream commitad3976025b] There is a possibility of having just one DMA window available with a limited capacity which the existing code does not handle that well. If the window is big enough for the system RAM but less than MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS (which we want when persistent memory is present), we create 1:1 window and leave persistent memory without DMA. This disables 1:1 mapping entirely if there is persistent memory and either: - the huge DMA window does not cover the entire address space; - the default DMA window is removed. This relies on reverted54fc3c681d("powerpc/pseries/ddw: Extend upper limit for huge DMA window for persistent memory") to return the actual amount RAM in ddw_memory_hotplug_max() (posted separately).

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.
