Hi,

SPDK provides a user-space NVMe driver, which means it does not run
within the kernel. Integrating it into the Linux kernel is not
something you would want to do - the Linux kernel already has an NVMe
driver.

If you can outline what your goals are in using SPDK, we can direct you
to an appropriate solution.

Thanks,
Ben
