Yeah sure. Below are the details about NVMe:

# lspci 
0040:01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: KIOXIA Corporation Device 0025 (rev 01)

# nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 -H 
NVME Identify Controller:
vid       : 0x1e0f
ssvid     : 0x1014
sn        : Z130A00LTGZ8        
mn        : 800GB NVMe Gen4 U.2 SSD                 
fr        : REV.C9S2
[...]
awun      : 65535
awupf     : 63
[...]

# nvme id-ns /dev/nvme0n1 -H 
NVME Identify Namespace 1:
nsze    : 0x18ffff3
ncap    : 0x18ffff3
nuse    : 0
nsfeat  : 0x14
  [4:4] : 0x1	NPWG, NPWA, NPDG, NPDA, and NOWS are Supported
  [3:3] : 0	NGUID and EUI64 fields if non-zero, Reused
  [2:2] : 0x1	Deallocated or Unwritten Logical Block error Supported
  [1:1] : 0	Namespace uses AWUN, AWUPF, and ACWU
  [0:0] : 0	Thin Provisioning Not Supported

[...]

nawun   : 0
nawupf  : 0
nacwu   : 0
nabsn   : 0
nabo    : 0
nabspf  : 0

[...]

LBA Format  0 : Metadata Size: 0   bytes - Data Size: 4096 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best (in use)
LBA Format  1 : Metadata Size: 8   bytes - Data Size: 4096 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best 
LBA Format  2 : Metadata Size: 0   bytes - Data Size: 512 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best 
LBA Format  3 : Metadata Size: 8   bytes - Data Size: 512 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best 
LBA Format  4 : Metadata Size: 64  bytes - Data Size: 4096 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best 
LBA Format  5 : Metadata Size: 8   bytes - Data Size: 512 bytes - Relative Performance: 0 Best 


As shown above, I am using KIOXIA NVMe. This NVMe has one namespace created(nvme0n1). 
The nsfeat reports that this namespace uses AWUN, AWUPF, and ACWU.The awupf for this NVMe is 63. 
As awupf is 0's based value, it's actually 64. The configured LBA for the namespace (in use) is 4096 
bytes and so that means that this NVMe supports writing 262144 (64*4096) bytes of data atomically 
during power failure. Further, please note that on this NVMe we have nawupf/nabspf/nabo all set
to zero. 

Let me know if you need any other details. And BTW, if you want I could help you with anything 
you'd like to test on this NVMe. 

Thanks,
--Nilay
