.sp
|
||
|
For the NVMe device given, sends an identify controller command and provides the result and returned structure\&.
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1)\&.
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
On success, the structure may be returned in one of several ways depending on the option flags; the structure may be parsed by the program or the raw buffer may be printed to stdout\&.

\-b, \-\-raw\-binary

Print the raw buffer to stdout\&. Structure is not parsed by program\&. This overrides the vendor specific and human readable options\&.

In addition to parsing known fields, this option will dump the vendor specific region of the structure in hex with ascii interpretation\&.

\-H, \-\-human\-readable

Set the reporting format to

\fInormal\fR,

\fIjson\fR, or
|

\fIbinary\fR\&. Only one output format can be used at a time\&.

In addition to showing the known fields, has the program to display the vendor unique field:
|

.sp

.if n \{\

The above will dump the

Have the program return the raw structure in binary:
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
.if n \{\
|

.RS 4
|

It is probably a bad idea to not redirect stdout when using this mode\&.

Alternatively you may want to send the data to another program that can parse the raw buffer\&.
|
||
|
.sp
|

.if n \{\

.RS 4
|

The parse program in the above example can be a program that shows the structure in a way you like\&. The following program is such an example that will parse it and can accept the output through a pipe,
|
||
|
\*(Aq|\*(Aq, as shown in the above example, or you can
|
||
|
\*(Aqcat\*(Aq
|
||
|
a saved output buffer to it\&.
