+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+For the NVMe device given, send a Vendor Unique WDC vs\-smart\-add\-log\-c1 command and provide the additional smart log\&. The \-\-interval option will return performance statistics from the specified reporting interval\&.
+.sp
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0)\&.
+.sp
+This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature\&. Results for any other device are undefined\&.
+.sp
+On success it returns 0, error code otherwise\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\-i <NUM>, \-\-interval=<NUM>
+.RS 4
+Return the statistics from specific interval, defaults to 14
+.RE
+.PP
+\-o <format>, \-\-output\-format=<format>
+.RS 4
+Set the reporting format to
+\fIhuman\fR, or
+\fIjson\fR\&. Only one output format can be used at a time\&. Default is human\&.

If this figure is equal to or near 100%, and the NAND Read Before Write value is also high, then the user should investigate the possibility of offsetting the file system\&. For Microsoft Windows systems, the user can use Diskpart\&. For Unix\-based operating systems, there is normally a method whereby file system partitions can be placed where required\&.

+Number of host write commands that were stalled due to a lack of resources within the SSD during the reporting period\&. The most likely cause is that the write data was being received faster than it could be saved to the NAND flash memory\&. If there was a large volume of read commands being processed simultaneously, then other causes might include the NAND flash command queue being full, low cache page count, or cache page contention, etc\&.

+NAME

+nvme-wdc-vs-smart-add-log-c1 - Send NVMe WDC vs-smart-add-log-c1 Vendor Unique Command, return result
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'nvme wdc vs-smart-add-log-c1' <device> [--interval=<NUM>, -i <NUM>] [--output-format=<normal|json> -o <normal|json>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+For the NVMe device given, send a Vendor Unique WDC vs-smart-add-log-c1 command and
+provide the additional smart log. The --interval option will return performance
+statistics from the specified reporting interval.
+
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character
+device (ex: /dev/nvme0).
+
+This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature.
+Results for any other device are undefined.
+
+On success it returns 0, error code otherwise.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-i <NUM>::
+--interval=<NUM>::
+ Return the statistics from specific interval, defaults to 14
+
+-o <format>::
+--output-format=<format>::
+ Set the reporting format to 'human', or
+ 'json'. Only one output format can be used at a time.
+ Default is human.
+
+Valid Interval values and description :-

+
+|*Average Read Cache Hit Size*
+|Average size of read commands satisfied from the cache.
+
+|*Host Read Commands Stalled*
+|Number of host read commands that were stalled due to a lack of resources within
+the SSD during the reporting period (NAND flash command queue full, low cache page count,
+cache page contention, etc.). Commands are not considered stalled if the only reason for
+the delay was waiting for the data to be physically read from the NAND flash. It is normal
+to expect this count to equal zero on heavily utilized systems.
+
+|*Host Read Commands Stalled Percentage*
+|Percentage of read commands that were stalled. If the figure is consistently high,
+then consideration should be given to spreading the data across multiple SSDs.
+
+|*Host Write Commands*
+|Number of host write commands received during the reporting period.
+
+|*Host Write Blocks*
+|Number of 512-byte blocks written during the reporting period.
+
+|*Average Write Size*
+|Average Write size calculated using (Host Write Blocks/Host Write Commands).
+
+|*Host Write Odd Start Commands*
+|Number of host write commands that started on a non-aligned boundary during
+the reporting period. The size of the boundary alignment is normally 4K; therefore
+this returns the number of commands that started on a non-4K aligned boundary.
+The SSD requires slightly more time to process non-aligned write commands than it
+does to process aligned write commands.
+
+|*Host Write Odd Start Commands Percentage*
+|Percentage of host write commands that started on a non-aligned boundary. If this
+figure is equal to or near 100%, and the NAND Read Before Write value is also high,
+then the user should investigate the possibility of offsetting the file system. For
+Microsoft Windows systems, the user can use Diskpart. For Unix-based operating systems,
+there is normally a method whereby file system partitions can be placed where required.
+
+|*Host Write Odd End Commands*
+|Number of host write commands that ended on a non-aligned boundary during the
+reporting period. The size of the boundary alignment is normally 4K; therefore this
+returns the number of commands that ended on a non-4K aligned boundary.
+
+|*Host Write Odd End Commands Percentage*
+|Percentage of host write commands that ended on a non-aligned boundary.
+
+|*Host Write Commands Stalled*
+|Number of host write commands that were stalled due to a lack of resources within the
+SSD during the reporting period. The most likely cause is that the write data was being
+received faster than it could be saved to the NAND flash memory. If there was a large
+volume of read commands being processed simultaneously, then other causes might include
+the NAND flash command queue being full, low cache page count, or cache page contention, etc.
+It is normal to expect this count to be non-zero on heavily utilized systems.
+
+|*Host Write Commands Stalled Percentage*
+|Percentage of write commands that were stalled. If the figure is consistently high, then
+consideration should be given to spreading the data across multiple SSDs.
+
+|*NAND Read Commands*
+|Number of read commands issued to the NAND devices during the reporting period.
+This figure will normally be much higher than the host read commands figure, as the data
+needed to satisfy a single host read command may be spread across several NAND flash devices.
+
+|*NAND Read Blocks*
+|Number of 512-byte blocks requested from NAND flash devices during the reporting period.
+This figure would normally be about the same as the host read blocks figure
+
+|*Average NAND Read Size*
+|Average size of NAND read commands.
+
+|*NAND Write Commands*
+|Number of write commands issued to the NAND devices during the reporting period.
+There is no real correlation between the number of host write commands issued and the
+number of NAND Write Commands.
+
+|*NAND Write Blocks*
+|Number of 512-byte blocks written to the NAND flash devices during the reporting period.
+This figure would normally be about the same as the host write blocks figure.
+
+|*Average NAND Write Size*
+|Average size of NAND write commands. This figure should never be greater than 128K, as
+this is the maximum size write that is ever issued to a NAND device.
+
+|*NAND Read Before Write*
+|This is the number of read before write operations that were required to process
+non-aligned host write commands during the reporting period. See Host Write Odd Start
+Commands and Host Write Odd End Commands. NAND Read Before Write operations have
+a detrimental effect on the overall performance of the device.

+NAME

+nvme-wdc-vs-smart-add-log - Send NVMe WDC vs-smart-add-log Vendor Unique Command, return result
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'nvme wdc vs-smart-add-log' <device> [--output-format=<normal|json> -o <normal|json>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+For the NVMe device given, send a Vendor Unique WDC vs-smart-add-log command and
+provide the additional smart CA log.
+
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character
+device (ex: /dev/nvme0).
+
+This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature.
+Results for any other device are undefined.
+
+On success it returns 0, error code otherwise.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-o <format>::
+--output-format=<format>::
+ Set the reporting format to 'human', or
+ 'json'. Only one output format can be used at a time.
+ Default is human.
