.SH NAME
nvme_mi_admin_identify_partial \- Perform an Admin identify command, and retrieve partial response data.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "int" nvme_mi_admin_identify_partial
.BI "(nvme_mi_ctrl_t ctrl " ","
.BI "struct nvme_identify_args *args " ","
.BI "off_t offset " ","
.BI "size_t size " ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "ctrl" 12
Controller to process identify command
.IP "args" 12
Identify command arguments
.IP "offset" 12
offset of identify data to retrieve from response
.IP "size" 12
size of identify data to return
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Perform an Identify command, using the Identify command parameters in \fIargs\fP.
The \fIoffset\fP and \fIsize\fP arguments allow the caller to retrieve part of
the identify response. See NVMe-MI section 6.2 for the semantics (and some
handy diagrams) of the offset & size parameters.
Will return an error if the length of the response data (from the controller)
did not match \fIsize\fP.
Unless you're performing a vendor-unique identify command, You'll probably
want to use one of the identify helpers (nvme_mi_admin_identify,
nvme_mi_admin_identify_cns_nsid, or nvme_mi_admin_identify_<type>) instead
of this. If the type of your identify command is standardized but not
yet supported by libnvme-mi, please contact the maintainers.
See: \fIstruct nvme_identify_args\fP
.SH "RETURN"
The nvme command status if a response was received (see
\fIenum nvme_status_field\fP) or -1 with errno set otherwise.
