cxl-disable-bus(1)

cxl-disable-bus1

Shutdown an entire tree of cxl devices

Usage

cxl disable-bus <root0> [<root1>..<rootN>] [<options>]

Options

-f, --force

DANGEROUS: Override the safety measure that blocks attempts to disable a bus if the tool determines a descendent memdev is in active usage. Recall that CXL memory ranges might have been established by platform firmware and disabling an active device is akin to force removing memory from a running system.

--debug

If the cxl tool was built with debug disabled, turn on debug messages.
