Will use stdout by de- fault if you don't provide a file. OPTIONS -s <slba>, --start-block=<slba> Start block. -c, --block-count The number of blocks to transfer. This is a zeroes based value to align with the kernel's use of this field. (ie. 0 means transfer 1 block). -z <size>, --data-size=<size> Size of data, in bytes. -y <size>, --metadata-size=<size> Size of metadata in bytes. -d <data-file>, --data=<data-file> Data file. If none provided, contents are sent to STDOUT. -M <metadata-file>, --metadata=<metadata-file> Metadata file, if necessary. -p <prinfo>, --prinfo=<prinfo> Protection Information field definition. +-----+-----------------------------+ | Bit | Description | +-----+-----------------------------+ | 3 | PRACT: Protection Informa- | | | tion Action. When set to 1, | | | PI is stripped/inserted on | | | read/write when the block | | | format's metadata size is | | | 8. When set to 0, metadata | | | is passes. | +-----+-----------------------------+ | 2:0 | PRCHK: Protection Informa- | | | tion Check: | +-----+-----------------------------+ | 2 | Set to 1 enables checking | | | the guard tag | +-----+-----------------------------+ | 1 | Set to 1 enables checking | | | the application tag | +-----+-----------------------------+ | 0 | Set to 1 enables checking | | | the reference tag | +-----+-----------------------------+ -r <reftag>, --ref-tag=<reftag> Optional reftag when used with protection information. -m <appmask>, --app-tag-mask=<appmask> Optional application tag mask when used with protection information. -f, --force-unit-access Set the force-unit access flag. -T <type>, --dir-type=<type> Optional directive type. The nvme-cli only enforces the value be in the defined range for the directive type, though the NVMe specification (1.3a) defines only one directive, 01h, for write stream identifiers. -S <spec>, --dir-spec=<spec> Optional field for directive specifics. When used with write streams, this value is defined to be the write stream identifier. The nvme-cli will not validate the stream requested is within the controller's capa- bilities. -D <dsm>, --dsm=<dsm> The optional data set management attributes for this command. The argu- ment for this is the least significant 8 bits of the DSM field in a write command; the most significant 16 bits of the field come from the directive specific field, if used. This may be used to set attributes for the LBAs being written, like access frequency, type, latency, among other things, as well as yet to be defined types. Please consult the NVMe specification for detailed breakdown of how to use this field. -V, --show-cmd Print out the command to be sent. -w, --dry-run Do not actually send the command. If want to use --dry-run option, --show-cmd option must be set. Otherwise --dry-run option will be ig- nored. -t, --latency Print out the latency the IOCTL took (in us). -g <storage-tag>, --storage-tag=<storage-tag> Variable Sized Expected Logical Block Storage Tag(ELBST). -C, --storage-tag-check This flag enables Storage Tag field checking as part of end-to-end data protection processing. --force Ignore namespace is currently busy and performed the operation even though. -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> Set the reporting format to normal, json or binary. Only one output format can be used at a time. -v, --verbose Increase the information detail in the output. --timeout=<timeout> Override default timeout value. In milliseconds.
