💅 NVME-WDC-CLEAR-PC — nvme-wdc-clear-pcie-correctable-errors

okay bestie, welcome to NVME-WDC-CLEAR-PC(1) from the NVMe Manual — yes this page is literally named weird in the header and we're being so brave about it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

nvme-wdc-clear-pcie-correctable-errors — the little command that clears the pcie correctable errors field that gets returned in the smart-log-add command. that's it. that's the job. she's niche, she's specific, she ate 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

nvme [<global-options>] wdc clear-pcie-correctable-errors <device>

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so for the NVMe device you hand over, this bad girl sends the wdc vendor unique clear pcie correctable errors command. one command, one purpose, main character energy 🔥

the <device> parameter is mandatory — like, you cannot skip it, she will not perform without it. and it can be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0) or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). both are valid, pick your fighter 🫶

⚠️ heads up: this will only work on WDC devices that support this feature. results for any other device are undefined — so like, don't be out here testing on random hardware and then acting surprised, okay? that's not the vibe 💀

💖 OPTIONS 💖

None

literally none. zero. the options list is empty and honestly? iconic. less is more, periodt ✨

👑 GLOBAL OPTIONS 👑

these are defined at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand too — so yes, you can bring your faves along 🌈

• --dry-run — prints the command that would be executed but does not actually execute it. lowkey a peek-not-touch situation 🙈
• --no-ioctl-probing — disables probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.
• --no-retries — disables retry logic on transient errors. no second chances, no do-overs 💀
• -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> — sets the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. only one output format may be used at a time, so pick one and commit bestie 🎀
• --output-format-version=<version> — selects the output format version. version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names. other versions are rejected — not tolerated, rejected 😤
• --quiet — suppresses informational messages. errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level. it's giving "shush but not fully shush" 🤫
• --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). she'll wait forever, literally 🫶
• -v, --verbose — increases the level of detail in the output. may be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. spam it, go off, the more the merrier 💜

these options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). a command-line flag always overrides the file — flags stay winning, no cap 👑

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

• clears the PCIe Correctable Error Count field returned in the smart-log-add command:

# nvme wdc clear-pcie-correctable-errors /dev/nvme0
