M.2 SSD on Banana Pi R3

Hi,

I installed an SSD [1] in the M.2 slot on the BPi R3 board, but at least in fdisk and lspci the SSD is not shown.
Are there some special kernel modules needed to be installed or is that particular SSD simply not supported?

It is possible to create openwrt patched kernel with this patch???
Thank you!!

So I just got another SSD - a KBG40ZNV256G - which only has an x2 instead of an x4 interface with the patriot one. Maybe this was the issue, as the board only has 2 lanes.
The new ssd works now.

I applied a kernel patch and compile a new openwrt image and now recognized SSD M.2 Adata Legend 710 (PCIe Gen3 x4) .Only patch application is required .

Could you provide the patch here?
