Doesn't that mean your host is using this command wrong? The NLB is a
0's based value, we're supposed to +1 to get the correct block count.
Keith, I tested passing different values to the c (number of blocks) and
s (64-bit LBA of first block to access) parameters, and it was failing.
When I removed the +1, the command worked fine.
I used a simple script to validate this:
for s in {0..20}
do
for c in {0..20}
do
nvme write-zeroes /dev/nvme0 -n 10 -s $s -c $c
done
done
Is there some other way to test it?
