Feature-Request: Add NVMe Target offload as an option #335

Open wzrdtales opened 1 year ago

wzrdtales commented 1 year ago

To enable NVMe target offload the host must have the following kernel modules loaded (more documentation no code edits needed):

Required driver >= MLNX_OFED-4.3

The following special config files must be written:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/config/nvmet/subsystems/{subsystem}/attr_offload

The rest is pretty much the standard.
