+Compute Express Link Memory Devices
+===================================
+
+A Compute Express Link Memory Device is a CXL component that implements the
+CXL.mem protocol. It contains some amount of volatile memory, persistent memory,
+or both. It is enumerated as a PCI device for configuration and passing
+messages over an MMIO mailbox. Its contribution to the System Physical
+Address space is handled via HDM (Host Managed Device Memory) decoders
+that optionally define a device's contribution to an interleaved address
+range across multiple devices underneath a host-bridge or interleaved
+across host-bridges.
