Keith - As we discussed for mpt3sas driver NVME driver support, there was request to add linux-nvme@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for NVME related discussion. https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=149874673729467&w=2 As you mentioned, we are not touching NVME subsystem, we can skip to add NVME mailing list for future submission w.r.t NVME drive behind MR (megaraid_sas) and HBA (mpt3sas). All the NVME drives behind MegaRaid controller is SCSI device irrespective of transport. Kashyap
