💖 XNVME_FILE-DUMP-SYNC-IOVEC 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the xNVMe manual — it's xnvme_file-dump-sync-iovec, and no cap, the name is giving "I am a subcommand of a bigger thing," because it is. It lives under the xnvme_file umbrella and it does exactly one (1) main character job. Let's get into it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

xnvme_file-dump-sync-iovec — Write a buffer of 'data-nbytes' to file

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

xnvme_file dump-sync-iovec <data-output> [<args>]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Write a buffer of 'data-nbytes' to file

(that's it. that's the whole vibe. it writes, it syncs, it's got iovecs. periodt. 💅)

👑 REQUIRED 👑

these ones are not optional, bestie. you gotta bring them to the party or nothing happens.

  • <data-output> — Path to data output-file. like, where the data goes. you must tell it this. 🫶
  • --data-nbytes NUM — Data size in bytes. how many bytes are we writing? tell it. in numbers. fr fr.

✨ OPTIONAL ✨

these ones are the ~extra credit~ — you can skip them, but they're cute.

  • [ --iosize NUM ] — Use given 'NUM' as bs/iosize. it's giving "set your block size / iosize, queen." 🍓
  • [ --direct ] — Bypass layers. literally skips straight past the layers, no detours. 🌈
  • [ --sync STRING ] — xNVMe sync. command-interface, e.g. 'nvme', 'block'. that's a string, not a number, so pick your interface wisely. 💜
  • [ --be STRING ] — xNVMe backend, e.g. 'linux', 'spdk', 'fbsd', 'macos', 'posix', 'windows'. pick your backend, bestie — there's a whole lineup. 🧚
  • [ --vec-cnt NUM ] — Number of elements in vectors when doing vectored IOs. (yes, this is the "iovec" part of the name, we see you 👀)
  • [ --help ] — Show usage / help. the classic. when in doubt, ask for help. no shame in it. 💖
