Hello,
I was able to use a physical Kingston KC3000 to present to an ESXi as
NVMe namespace. My tries to present a file or block device failed, does
anyone else has some receipts that work.

See also: https://github.com/spdk/spdk/issues/2993

Malloc worked as well.

# scripts/rpc.py bdev_nvme_attach_controller -b NVMe1 -t PCIe -a 0000:01:00.0
# scripts/rpc.py bdev_malloc_create -b Malloc0 512 512

Cheers,
        Thomas
