This other information is the traditional "page_link" encoding in a scatterlist, but can also denote "device memory". Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are not part of the kernel's linear mapping, but are accessed via the same memory controller as ram. The motivation for this conversion is large capacity persistent memory that does not enjoy struct page coverage, entries in memmap, by default. This type will be used in replace usage of 'struct page *' in cases where only a pfn is required, i.e. scatterlists for drivers, dma mapping api, and later biovecs for the block layer. The operations in those i/o paths that formerly required a 'struct page *' are converted to use __pfn_t aware equivalent helpers. The goal is that existing use cases of data structures referencing struct page are binary identical to the __pfn_t converted type. Only new use cases for pmem will require the new __pfn_t helper routines, i.e. __pfn_t is a struct page alias in the absence of pmem. It turns out that while 'struct page' references are used broadly in the kernel I/O stacks the usage of 'struct page' based capabilities is very shallow for block-i/o. It is only used for populating bio_vecs and scatterlists for the retrieval of dma addresses, and for temporary kernel mappings (kmap). Aside from kmap, these usages can be trivially converted to operate on a pfn. Indeed, kmap_atomic() is more problematic as it uses mm infrastructure, via struct page, to setup and track temporary kernel mappings. It would be unfortunate if the kmap infrastructure escaped its 32-bit/HIGHMEM bonds and leaked into 64-bit code. Thankfully, it seems all that is needed here is to convert kmap_atomic() callers, that want to opt-in to supporting persistent memory, to use a new kmap_atomic_pfn_t(). Where kmap_atomic_pfn_t() is enabled to re-use the existing ioremap() mapping established by the driver for persistent memory. Note, that as far as conceptually understanding __pfn_t is concerned, 'persistent memory' is really any address range in host memory not covered by memmap. Contrast this with pure iomem that is on an mmio mapped bus like PCI and cannot be converted to a dma_addr_t by "pfn << PAGE_SHIFT". Cc: H.
