SYNOPSIS

9       nvme security-send <device> [--file=<file> | -f <file>]
10                           [--secp=<security-protocol> | -p <security-protocol>]
11                           [--spsp=<protocol-specific> | -s <protocol-specific>]
12                           [--tl=<transfer-length> | -t <transfer-length>]
13                           [--nssf=<nvme-specific> | -N <nvme-specific>]
14                           [--namespace-id=<nsid> | -n <nsid>]

DESCRIPTION

17       The Security Send command is used to transfer security protocol data to
18       the controller. The data structure transferred to the controller as
19       part of this command contains security protocol specific commands to be
20       performed by the controller. The data structure transferred may also
21       contain data or parameters associated with the security protocol
22       commands. Status and data that is to be returned to the host for the
23       security protocol commands submitted by a Security Send command are
24       retrieved with the Security Receive command.
25
26       The association between a Security Send command and subsequent Security
27       Receive command is Security Protocol field dependent as defined in
28       SPC-4.

OPTIONS

31       -n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid>
32           Target a specific namespace for this security command.
33
34       -N <nssf>, --nssf=<nssf>
35           NVMe Security Specific field. If using security protocol EAh
36           assigned for NVMe use, the NVMe security specific field indicates
37           which reply memory buffer target.
38
39       -f <file>, --file=<file>
40           Path to file used as the security protocol’s payload. Required
41           argument.
42
43       -p <security-protocol>, --secp=<security-protocol>
44           Security Protocol: This field specifies the security protocol as
45           defined in SPC-4. The controller shall fail the command with
46           Invalid Parameter indicated if a reserved value of the Security
47           Protocol is specified.
48
49       -s <security-protocol-specific>, --spsp=<security-protocol-specific>
50           SP Specific: The value of this field is specific to the Security
51           Protocol as defined in SPC-4.
52
53       -t <trans-length>, --tl=<trans-length>
54           Transfer Length: The value of this field is specific to the
55           Security Protocol as defined in SPC-4.
