My system has 4 8G NVDIMMs and I have them configured in different

The two memory namespaces have different sizes because one is --map=dev and the other is
--map=mem.
It would be nice if the map option was displayed but my question is about the size value
for the
btt device, or lack of one.
All the namespaces show a size except for the btt. The btt only shows a sector size.
There
is no size value exposed by the btt sysfs information, which is probably why it's not
in ndctl.
I know the size can be gotten from the block device but it looks like an omission here.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Probably an omission :)
This patch should expose a size attribute in sysfs:
$ cat /sys/bus/nd/devices/btt7.0/size
32440320
I can look at the 'ndctl list' enabling too if this looks good.

Subject: [PATCH] nvdimm, btt: add a size attribute for BTTs
To be consistent with other namespaces, expose a 'size' attribute for
BTT devices also.
