Using NVMe without NVD

Hi All,

I see that nvme can be used by two consumers. One of the consumer is nvd and other consumer is unused. I tried registering as consumer to the nvme but it did not work. I find it because I am not getting callbacks specified in the nvme_register_consumer function. So before going into detail, I just wanted to know if this is possible or should we make any changes to the nvme driver.

Thanking You,
Param.
 
It may be crystal clear to you because you're working on it but I have no idea what you're talking about. Can you give us some context so we know what it is you're asking?
 
Neither do I. We have a thread here where we show how to use nvmecontrol

I am unsure exactly what the nvd layer does but I assume its an abstraction layer for the physical device. Hence my drive name nvd0.

I am unsure what you mean by 2 customers? This look like your doing some coding to access the drive?
"nvme_register_consumer function"
