NAME
nvme-show-regs - Reads and shows the defined NVMe controller registers for NVMe over PCIe or the
controller properties for NVMe over Fabrics.
SYNOPSIS
nvme show-regs <device> [--human-readable | -H]
DESCRIPTION
For the NVMe over PCIe device given, sends an identify namespace command and provides the result and
returned structure. For the NVMe over Fabrics device given, sends a fabric command and provides the
result and returned structure.
The <device> parameter is mandatory and must be the nvme admin character device (ex: /dev/nvme0). For
NVMe over PCIe, the program uses knowledge of the sysfs layout to map the device to the pci resource
stored there and mmaps the memory to get access to the registers. For NVMe over Fabrics, the programs
sends a fabric command to get the properties of the target NVMe controller. Only the supported properties
are displayed.
OPTIONS
-H, --human-readable
Display registers or supported properties in human readable format.
EXAMPLES
• Show the NVMe over PCIe controller registers or the NVMe over Fabric controller properties in a
binary format:
# nvme show-regs /dev/nvme0
• Show the NVMe over PCIe controller registers or the NVMe over Fabric controller properties in a human
readable format:
# nvme show-regs /dev/nvme0 -H
