Subject: [PATCH] ndctl, documentation: Clarify the dimm id for ndctl list d option
Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2018 17:21:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180806212130.1605-1-msys.mizuma@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Masayoshi Mizuma <m.mizuma@jp.fujitsu.com>
User may be confused the dimm id description of ndctl list -d
option because ndctl list says id, but the id is not useful to
d option.
]# ndctl list -d nmem7 | jq -r .id
cdab-0a-07e0-fefffeff
]# ndctl list -d cdab-0a-07e0-fefffeff
]#
The appropriate id here is X in 'nmemX' (Above example, X is 7).
Let's clarify the description.
