libnvdimm

About this tag
The libnvdimm tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about the Linux kernel subsystem for managing NVDIMM persistent memory devices. Recent content highlights Microsoft's RAMDAX driver contribution to the libnvdimm development branch, which enables treating carved-out RAM as NVDIMM DIMMs for DAX namespaces. This allows in-memory regions to be exposed as persistent-memory devices, supporting flexible data access for virtualized and cloud workloads. Topics include kernel development, memory management, and persistent memory technologies.
