The ACPI_NFIT config option is described incorrectly as the inverse NFIT_ACPI, which doesn't exist, so update the help to the actual config option.

ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources. On platforms that define an

NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm

bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)

Memory ranges for PMEM are described by either an NFIT

|
non-standard OEM-specific E820 memory type (type-12, see

CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY), or it is manually specified by the
|
|
'memmap=nn[KMG]!ss[KMG]' kernel command line (see
|
|
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst). This driver converts
|
|
these persistent memory ranges into block devices that are

|
capable of DAX (direct-access) file system mappings. See

Documentation/driver-api/nvdimm/nvdimm.rst for more details.

The Block Translation Table (BTT) provides atomic sector

update semantics for persistent memory devices, so that
|

applications that rely on sector writes not being torn (a
|
|
guarantee that typical disks provide) can continue to do so.

The BTT manifests itself as an alternate personality for an

NVDIMM namespace, i.e. a namespace can be in raw mode pmemX,

or 'sectored' mode.

KMSAN, and other memory debug facilities, increase the size of

'struct page' to contain extra metadata. This collides with

the NVDIMM capability to store a potentially
|
|
larger-than-"System RAM" size 'struct page' array in a
|
|
reservation of persistent memory rather than limited /
|
|
precious DRAM. However, that reservation needs to persist for
|
|
the life of the given NVDIMM namespace. If you are using KMSAN
|
|
to debug an issue unrelated to NVDIMMs or DAX then say N to this
|
|
option. Otherwise, say Y but understand that any namespaces
|
|
(with the page array stored pmem) created with this build of

the kernel will permanently reserve and strand excess

capacity compared to the CONFIG_KMSAN=n case.
