| 9 | The NVM Express driver is for solid state drives directly | |
| 10 | connected to the PCI or PCI Express bus. If you know you | |
| 11 | don't have one of these, it is safe to answer N. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the | |
| 14 | module will be called nvme. | |

19 | ---help--- |
| 20 | This adds support for the SG_IO ioctl on the NVMe character | |
| b31356df | 21 | and block devices nodes, as well as a translation for a small |
| 44907332 CH |
22 | number of selected SCSI commands to NVMe commands to the NVMe |
| 23 | driver. If you don't know what this means you probably want | |
| 21d14788 CH |
24 | to say N here, unless you run a distro that abuses the SCSI |
| 25 | emulation to provide stable device names for mount by id, like | |
| 26 | some OpenSuSE and SLES versions. | |

| 37 | help | |
| 38 | This provides support for the NVMe over Fabrics protocol using | |
| 39 | the RDMA (Infiniband, RoCE, iWarp) transport. This allows you | |
| 40 | to use remote block devices exported using the NVMe protocol set. | |
| 41 | ||
| 42 | To configure a NVMe over Fabrics controller use the nvme-cli tool | |
| 43 | from https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-cli. | |

| 45 | If unsure, say N. |
