nvme_direct...e_identifier(2)

💖 NAME 💖

nvme_directive_send_stream_release_identifier — the Directive Send Stream release bestie, from your very own libnvme API manual ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int nvme_directive_send_stream_release_identifier (int fd , __u32 nsid ,
       __u16 stream_id );

That's the whole thing, no cap. Three little args and she's slaying 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• fd — the file descriptor of the nvme device. like the little handshake 👋 that says "hey, this device right here".
• nsid — the Namespace ID. every namespace has her own number, iykyk 🦋
• stream_id — the Stream identifier. the actual stream we're releasing, periodt 💜

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

so if a response comes back, you get the nvme command status (peep enum nvme_status_field for the full breakdown, it's giving receipts 🔍).

and if not?? it returns -1 with errno set. so like, check errno, bestie, don't just stand there 😭

omg that's literally the whole page 🫶

mwah — this lovely little API manual dropped in July 2026, straight outta the nvme_directive_send_stream_release_identifier(2) corner of the libnvme universe 🌈👑💖
