NVMe management command line interface.
nvme-cli is the command line tool for managing NVMe devices. It is
built on the libnvme library. Together they support local NVMe drives,
NVMe-oF fabrics (TCP, RDMA, FC), and many vendor-specific plugins.
For more information on the NVM Express standard, see https://nvmexpress.org.
The project is developed on GitHub at https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-cli.
