NAME
ndctl-list - dump the platform nvdimm device topology and attributes in json
SYNOPSIS
ndctl list [<options>]
Walk all the nvdimm buses in the system and list all attached devices along with some of
their major attributes.
Options can be specified to limit the output to devices of a certain class. Where the
classes are buses, dimms, regions, and namespaces. By default, ndctl list with no options
is equivalent to:
ndctl list --namespaces --bus=all --region=all
EXAMPLE
# ndctl list --buses --namespaces
{
"provider":"nfit_test.1",
"dev":"ndbus2",
"namespaces":[
{
"dev":"namespace9.0",
"mode":"raw",
"size":33554432,
"blockdev":"pmem9"
}
]
}
{
"provider":"nfit_test.0",
"dev":"ndbus1"
}
{
"provider":"e820",
"dev":"ndbus0",
"namespaces":[
{
"dev":"namespace0.0",
"mode":"fsdax",
"size":8589934592,
"blockdev":"pmem0"
}
]
}
OPTIONS
-r, --region=
A regionX device name, or a region id number. Restrict the operation to the specified
region(s). The keyword all can be specified to indicate the lack of any restriction,
however this is the same as not supplying a --region option at all.
-b, --bus=
A bus id number, or a provider string (e.g. "ACPI.NFIT"). Restrict the operation to
the specified bus(es). The keyword all can be specified to indicate the lack of any
restriction, however this is the same as not supplying a --bus option at all.
-d, --dimm=
An nmemX device name, or dimm id number. The dimm id number here is X in nmemX. Filter
listing by devices that reference the given dimm. For example to see all namespaces
comprised of storage capacity on nmem0:
# ndctl list --dimm=nmem0 --namespaces
-n, --namespace=
An namespaceX.Y device name, or namespace region plus id tuple X.Y. Limit the
namespace list to the single identified device if present.
-m, --mode=
Filter listing by the mode (raw, fsdax, sector or devdax) of the namespace(s).
-U, --numa-node=
Filter listing by numa node
-B, --buses
Include bus info in the listing
-D, --dimms
Include dimm info in the listing
{
"dev":"nmem0",
"id":"cdab-0a-07e0-ffffffff",
"handle":0,
"phys_id":0,
"security:":"disabled"
}
-H, --health
Include dimm health info in the listing. For example:
{
"dev":"nmem0",
"health":{
"health_state":"non-critical",
"temperature_celsius":23,
"spares_percentage":75,
"alarm_temperature":true,
"alarm_spares":true,
"temperature_threshold":40,
"spares_threshold":5,
"life_used_percentage":5,
"shutdown_state":"clean"
}
}
-F, --firmware
Include firmware info in the listing, including the state and capability of runtime
firmware activation:
# ndctl list -BDF
[
{
"provider":"nfit_test.0",
"dev":"ndbus2",
"scrub_state":"idle",
"firmware":{
"activate_method":"suspend",
"activate_state":"idle"
},
"dimms":[
{
"dev":"nmem1",
"id":"cdab-0a-07e0-ffffffff",
"handle":0,
"phys_id":0,
"security":"disabled",
"firmware":{
"current_version":0,
"can_update":true
}
},
...
]
-X, --device-dax
Include device-dax ("daxregion") details when a namespace is in "devdax" mode.
{
"dev":"namespace0.0",
"mode":"devdax",
"size":4225761280,
"uuid":"18ae1bbb-bb62-4efc-86df-4a5caacb5dcc",
"daxregion":{
"id":0,
"size":4225761280,
"align":2097152,
"devices":[
{
"chardev":"dax0.0",
"size":4225761280
}
]
}
}
-R, --regions
Include region info in the listing
-N, --namespaces
Include namespace info in the listing. Namespace info is listed by default if no other
options are specified to the command.
-i, --idle
Include idle (not enabled) devices in the listing
-c, --configured
Include configured devices (non-zero sized namespaces) regardless of whether they are
enabled, or not. Other devices besides namespaces are always considered "configured".
-C, --capabilities
Include region capabilities in the listing, i.e. supported namespace modes and
variable properties like sector sizes and alignments.
-M, --media-errors
Include media errors (badblocks) in the listing. Note that the badblock_count property
is included in the listing by default when the count is non-zero, otherwise it is
hidden. Also, if the namespace is in sector mode the badblocks listing is not included
and badblock_count property may include blocks that are located in metadata, or unused
capacity in the namespace. Convert a sector namespace into raw mode to list precise
badblocks offsets.
{
"dev":"namespace7.0",
"mode":"raw",
"size":33554432,
"blockdev":"pmem7",
"badblock_count":17,
"badblocks":[
{
"offset":4,
"length":1
},
{
"offset":32768,
"length":8
},
{
"offset":65528,
"length":8
}
]
}
-v, --verbose
Increase verbosity of the output. This can be specified multiple times to be even more
verbose on the informational and miscellaneous output, and can be used to override
omitted flags for showing specific information.
• -v In addition to the enabled namespaces default output, show the numa_node,
raw_uuid, and bad block media errors.
• -vv Everything -v provides, plus automatically enable --dimms, --buses, and
--regions.
• -vvv Everything -vv provides, plus --health, --capabilities, --idle, and
--firmware. :: The verbosity can also be scoped by the object type. For example to
just list regions with capabilities and media error info.
# ndctl list -Ru -vvv -r 0
{
"dev":"region0",
"size":"4.00 GiB (4.29 GB)",

]
}
],
"persistence_domain":"unknown"
}
-u, --human
Format numbers representing storage sizes, or offsets as human readable strings with
units instead of the default machine-friendly raw-integer data. Convert other numeric
fields into hexadecimal strings.
# ndctl list --region=7
{
"dev":"region7",
"size":67108864,

}
# ndctl list --human --region=7

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
NDCTL_LIST_LINT
A bug in the "ndctl list" output needs to be fixed with care for other tooling that
may have developed a dependency on the buggy behavior. The NDCTL_LIST_LINT variable is
an opt-in to apply fixes, and not regress previously shipped behavior by default. This
environment variable applies the following fixups:
• Fix "ndctl list -Rv" to only show region objects and not include namespace
objects. ::
