The Dell support came back to me, and said, that Hynix refuses to publish a fixed firmware unless I show them a use case, where I need that field. Can somebody think of a use case, and why this field was made mandatory in the specification? Kind regards, Paul ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

The NVMe TWG determined the previous methods were inadequate. The linux kernel will continue to use the device without this capability since the low level driver doesn't need it to interact with a controller, but the driver will warn about the non-compliance in case host software is relying on this field. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
