More Information
Summary:Embodiments of the present invention can provide an extended NVMe driver that supports exercising virtual functions (and related physical functions) of a DUT without using a VM or hypervisor. In this way, the amount of memory and processing resources used for testing NVMe SSDs can be significantly reduced, and a large number of DUTs (e.g., up to 16 DUTs) can be tested in parallel independently. In other words, each DUT is tested in isolation, as if is the only device being tested, and there are no race conditions or competition for resources between workloads during testing.
