NAME
       libnvme_get_nsid - Retrieve the NSID from a namespace file descriptor

SYNOPSIS
       int libnvme_get_nsid (struct libnvme_transport_handle *hdl , __u32
       *nsid );

ARGUMENTS
       hdl         Transport handle

       nsid        User pointer to namespace id

DESCRIPTION
       This should only be sent to namespace handles, not to controllers. The
       kernel's interface returns the nsid as the return value. This is
       unfortunate for many architectures that are incapable of allowing
       distinguishing a namespace id > 0x80000000 from a negative error
       number.

RETURN
       0 if nsid was set successfully or negative error code otherwise.
