When +enabled, the default NVME_SC_INVALID_OPCODE with no retry will be +injected into the nvme_end_request. Users can change the default status +code and no retry flag via the debugfs. The list of Generic Command +Status can be found in include/linux/nvme.h + +Following examples show how to inject an error into the nvme. + +First, enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS kernel config, +recompile the kernel.
