From bdc81eeda05d3af80254f6aac95759b07f13f2b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Warner Losh Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 21:37:10 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] nvme: Switch to nda by default We already run nda by default on all the !x86 architectures. Switch the default to nda. nda created nvd compatibility links by default, so this should be a nop. If this causes problems for your application, set hw.nvme.use_nvd=1 in your loader.conf.
