💅 NVME-SNDK-VS-HW-REV-LOG 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the NVMe Manual page for nvme-sndk-vs-hw-rev-log, and yes the header literally says NVME-SNDK-VS-HW-(1) because that's how the manual labels it. it's giving "long name, big job" energy and honestly? we're here for it ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

nvme-sndk-vs-hw-rev-log — sends the NVMe sndk vs-hw-rev-log Vendor Unique Command, and returns the result. lowkey iconic, no cap 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

nvme [<global-options>] sndk vs-hw-rev-log <device>
                        [--namespace-id=<nsid> | -n <nsid>]

that's the whole vibe. <device> is mandatory (main character energy, obviously), and the namespace-id bit is optional 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so for the NVMe device you hand over, this retrieves and formats the Vendor Unique sndk hw revision log page. that's the whole mission. 💖

the <device> parameter is mandatory — like, you literally cannot skip it — and it may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0) or a block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). pick your fighter 🎀

⚠️ important vibe check: this will only work on Sandisk devices that support this feature. Results for any other device are undefined — which is a very fancy way of saying "we don't know what happens, don't look at us." 🙈

on success it returns 0; error code otherwise. simple as that, periodt ⭐

💜 OPTIONS 💜

  • -n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid> — sets the command's nsid value to whatever nsid you give it. defaults to 0xffffffff if you don't give one. heads up though: this option may not affect anything depending on the log page, which may or may not be specific to a namespace — so it's kind of a "we'll see" situation 😭. the broadcast value 0xffffffff can also be given as all or -1. cute shortcuts, slay 🌈

✨ GLOBAL OPTIONS ✨

these are defined at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand. group-chat-wide defaults, basically 🫶

  • --dry-run — prints the command that would be executed, but does not actually execute it. window shopping, not buying 💅
  • --no-ioctl-probing — disables probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.
  • --no-retries — disables retry logic on transient errors. one shot, one opportunity 🎯
  • -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> — sets the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. (yes, the original really has that stray quote before json — we keep the facts exactly as they are, bestie 🫶) only one output format may be used at a time.
  • --output-format-version=<version> — selects the output format version. version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (the default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names. other versions are rejected — absolutely not, denied, next 💀
  • --quiet — suppresses informational messages. errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level. so it's a "shhh" that also overrides the "tell me more" 😌
  • --set-options=<key=value>[,<key=value>...] — sets libnvme library options for this invocation. supported keys are force-4k, mi-probe-enabled, test-base-dir and test-sysfs-dir.
  • --timeout=<ms> — sets the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). the "no thoughts, just wait" setting 🧚
  • -v, --verbose — increases the level of detail in the output. may be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. stack it like a combo move 🔥

these options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). a command-line flag always overrides the file — CLI stays the queen 👑

🌟 EXAMPLES 🌟

  • has the program issue sndk vs-hw-rev-log plugin Command:
# nvme sndk vs-hw-rev-log /dev/nvme0

look at that. gorgeous. eat it up 🍓
