Subject: [SPDK] NVME-CLI and Metadata

Hello, Everyone!I
have tried to test my SPDK app with the nvme-cli utility, as a part of testing we need to pass metadata from nvme-cli to SPDK's BDev (it's my application). so for test we use:

nvme write /dev/nvme0n1 --start-block=0 --data-size=262656 --data=/dev/random --metadata=md --metadata-size=4

In driver I expect to see has been passed metadata in the field :bdev_io->u.bdev.md_buf or
bdev_io->u.nvme_passthru.md_bufBut the both fields are NULL in the 'bdev_io' .

So, whatI'm need to check additionaly ?
TIA!
