Many nvme metadata formats can not strip or generate the metadata on the controller side. For these formats, a host provided integrity buffer is mandatory even if it isn't checked. The block integrity read_verify and write_generate attributes prevent allocating the metadata buffer, but we need it when the format requires it, otherwise reads and writes will be rejected by the driver with IO errors. Assume the integrity buffer can be offloaded to the controller if the metadata size is the same as the protection information size. Otherwise provide an unchecked host buffer when the read verify or write generation attributes are disabled. This fixes the following nvme warning: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 371 at drivers/nvme/host/core.c:1036 nvme_setup_rw+0x122/0x210 ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
