From 5569615424613aa006005f18b03a3a12738a47d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matias Bjørling Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2016 07:49:37 +0100 Subject: lightnvm: introduce ioctl to initialize device MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Based on the previous patch, we now introduce an ioctl to initialize the device using nvm_init_sysblock and create the necessary system blocks. The user may specify the media manager that they wish to instantiate on top. Default from user-space will be "gennvm".
