πŸ“¦ version 0.7.5, in alpine 3.24, epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– KVS-IDFY-NS(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this one lives in the xNVMe section of the manual, and it's called kvs-idfy-ns β€” the KV Command Set specific identify-controller. yes, that whole mouthful. she's niche but she's important. πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

kvs idfy-ns <uri> [<args>]

like, that's the whole vibe. give her a <uri>, maybe toss in some <args>, and she'll go do her thing. πŸ¦‹


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

KV Command Set specific identify-controller.

periodt. that's the description. she identifies the controller, but make it KV Command Set flavored. no cap. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ REQUIRED πŸ‘‘

bestie you literally cannot skip this one, she will not run without it:

  • <uri> β€” the Device URI, aka where your device lives. some iconic little examples: '/dev/nvme0n1', '0000:01:00.1', '10.9.8.1.8888', '\.PhysicalDrive1'

one of those. that's the assignment. 🌟


πŸŽ€ OPTIONAL πŸŽ€

these are the lil extras, the accessories to the outfit. optional but cute:

  • --nsid 0xNUM β€” Namespace Identifier for Command Construction. yep, she's the nsid you use when constructing the command, and yes it's a hex number (0xNUM). πŸ’œ
  • --dev-nsid 0xNUM β€” Namespace Identifier for Device Handle. this one is the nsid for the device handle β€” different job, same hex energy. πŸ™ˆ
  • --be STRING β€” the xNVMe backend, i.e. which flavor of the system you're talking to. options are 'linux', 'spdk', 'fbsd', 'macos', 'posix', 'windows'. pick your fighter. πŸ”₯
  • --admin STRING β€” the xNVMe admin. command-interface. think 'nvme' or 'block'. she handles the admin side of the relationship. ✨
  • --sync STRING β€” the xNVMe sync. command-interface, again like 'nvme' or 'block'. the synchronous half of the duo. 🫢
  • --help β€” Show usage / help. the classic. when in doubt, ask her nicely. 😭
