Subject: [PATCH 1/2] nvme: allow user toggling hmb usage
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2021 09:40:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210727164044.2285364-1-kbusch@kernel.org> (raw)

The NVMe host memory buffer may consume a non-negligable amount of
memory. Controllers are required to function without the host memory
buffer enabled, but with possibly degraded performance. Export a sysfs
property to toggle this feature on a per-device granularity so users may
choose to reclaim memory at the expense of storage performance.
