+Example 3: Inject an error into the 10th admin command
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+echo 100 > /sys/kernel/debug/nvme0/fault_inject/probability
+echo 10 > /sys/kernel/debug/nvme0/fault_inject/space
+echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/nvme0/fault_inject/times
+nvme reset /dev/nvme0
+
+Expected Result:
+
+After NVMe controller reset, the reinitialization may or may not succeed.
+It depends on which admin command is actually forced to fail.
+
+Message from dmesg:
+
+nvme nvme0: resetting controller
