Hello, When using AWS EC2, I can attach a new EBS volume to an instance at runtime. EBS volumes use nvme(4), but I can't seem to get a NetBSD instance (9.x or 10.99.2) to discover the new disk without rebooting.
# pcictl pci0 list 000:00:0: Intel 82441FX (PMC) PCI and Memory Controller (host bridge) 000:01:0: Intel 82371SB (PIIX3) PCI-ISA Bridge (ISA bridge) 000:01:3: Intel 82371AB (PIIX4) Power Management Controller (miscellaneous prehistoric, revision 0x08) 000:03:0: Amazon.com, Inc. product 1111 (VGA display) 000:04:0: Amazon.com, Inc. NVMe SSD (Flash mass storage, NVMe I/O) 000:05:0: Amazon.com, Inc. Elastic Network Adapter (ethernet network) 000:31:0: Amazon.com, Inc. NVMe SSD (Flash mass storage, NVMe I/O) The first NVMe shown here is the root disk, the second one is the volume I attached after the system booted up. # nvmectl identify nvme0 provides me with the correct information, but # nvmectl identify nvme1 nvmectl: could not open /dev/nvme1: Device not configured How do I get the new nvme to be discovered without rebooting? Thanks in advance! -Jan
