NAME
       ndctl - Manage "libnvdimm" subsystem devices (Non-volatile Memory)

DESCRIPTION
       ndctl is utility for managing the "libnvdimm" kernel subsystem.  The
       "libnvdimm" subsystem defines a kernel device model and control message
       interface for platform NVDIMM resources like those defined by the ACPI
       6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table).  Operations supported by
       the tool include, provisioning capacity (namespaces), as well as
       enumerating/enabling/disabling the devices (dimms, regions, namespaces)
       associated with an NVDIMM bus.
