.SH NAME
nvme_mi_admin_xfer \- Raw admin transfer interface.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "int" nvme_mi_admin_xfer
.BI "(nvme_mi_ctrl_t ctrl " ","
.BI "struct nvme_mi_admin_req_hdr *admin_req " ","
.BI "size_t req_data_size " ","
.BI "struct nvme_mi_admin_resp_hdr *admin_resp " ","
.BI "off_t resp_data_offset " ","
.BI "size_t *resp_data_size " ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "ctrl" 12
controller to send the admin command to
.IP "admin_req" 12
request data
.IP "req_data_size" 12
size of request data payload
.IP "admin_resp" 12
buffer for response data
.IP "resp_data_offset" 12
offset into request data to retrieve from controller
.IP "resp_data_size" 12
size of response data buffer, updated to received size
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Performs an arbitrary NVMe Admin command, using the provided request data,
in \fIadmin_req\fP. The size of the request data *payload* is specified in
\fIreq_data_size\fP - this does not include the standard header length (so a
header-only request would have a size of 0).
On success, response data is stored in \fIadmin_resp\fP, which has an optional
appended payload buffer of \fIresp_data_size\fP bytes. The actual payload
transferred will be stored in \fIresp_data_size\fP. These sizes do not include
the Admin request header, so 0 represents no payload.
As with all Admin commands, we can request partial data from the Admin
Response payload, offset by \fIresp_data_offset\fP.
See: \fIstruct nvme_mi_admin_req_hdr\fP and \fIstruct nvme_mi_admin_resp_hdr\fP.
.SH "RETURN"
0 on success, non-zero on failure.
