| 7 | This enabled target side support for the NVMe protocol, that is |
| 8 | it allows the Linux kernel to implement NVMe subsystems and |
| 9 | controllers and export Linux block devices as NVMe namespaces. |
| 10 | You need to select at least one of the transports below to make this |
| 11 | functionality useful. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | To configure the NVMe target you probably want to use the nvmetcli |
| 14 | tool from http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/nvmetcli.git. |
