DESCRIPTION
-----------
The Write Zeroes command is used to set a range of logical blocks to 0.
OPTIONS
-------
-s <slba>::
--start-block=<slba>::
Start block.
-c <nlb>::
--block-count=<nlb>::
Number of logical blocks to write zeroes.
-p <prinfo>::
--prinfo=<prinfo>::
Protection Information field definition.
+
[]
|=================
|Bit|Description
|3|PRACT: Protection Information Action. When set to 1, PI is stripped/inserted
on read/write when the block format's metadata size is 8. When set to 0,
metadata is passes.
|2:0|PRCHK: Protection Information Check:
|2|Set to 1 enables checking the guard tag
|1|Set to 1 enables checking the application tag
|0|Set to 1 enables checking the reference tag
|=================
-r <reftag>::
--ref-tag=<reftag>::
Optional reftag when used with protection information.
-m <appmask>::
--app-tag-mask=<appmask>::
Optional application tag mask when used with protection information.
-a <apptag>::
--app-tag=<apptag>::
Optional application tag when used with protection information.
-l::
--limited-retry::
Sets the limited retry flag.
-d::
--deac::
Sets the DEAC bit, requesting controller deallocate the logical blocks.
-f::
--force-unit-access::
Set the force-unit access flag.
-n <nsid>::
--namespace-id=<nsid>::
Namespace ID use in the command.
-S <storage-tag>::
--storage-tag=<storage-tag>::
Variable Sized Logical Block Storage Tag(LBST).
-C <storage-tag-check>::
--storage-tag-check=<storage-tag-check>::
This bit specifies the Storage Tag field shall be checked as part of end-to-end
data protection processing.
-T <dtype>::
--dir-type=<dtype>::
Directive type
-D <dspec>::
--dir-spec=<dspec>::
Directive specific
-o <fmt>::
--output-format=<fmt>::
Set the reporting format to 'normal', 'json' or 'binary'. Only one
output format can be used at a time.
-v::
--verbose::
Increase the information detail in the output.
