NAME
       nvme_identify_ns - Retrieves nvme identify namespace


SYNOPSIS
       int nvme_identify_ns (int fd , __u32 nsid , struct nvme_id_ns *ns );


ARGUMENTS
       fd          File descriptor of nvme device

       nsid        Namespace to identify

       ns          User space destination address to transfer the data


DESCRIPTION
       If  the  Namespace  Identifier  (NSID)  field  specifies an active NSID, then the Identify Namespace data
       structure is returned to the host for that specified namespace.

       If  the  controller  supports  the  Namespace  Management  capability  and  the  NSID  field  is  set  to
       NVME_NSID_ALL,  then  the  controller  returns  an  Identify  Namespace  data  structure  that  specifies
       capabilities that are common across namespaces for this controller.

       See struct nvme_id_ns for details on the structure returned.


RETURN
       The nvme command status if a response was received (see enum nvme_status_field)  or  -1  with  errno  set
       otherwise.
