Commit Message

Shai Malin May 19, 2021, 11:13 a.m. UTC
This patch will present the structure for the NVMeTCP offload common
layer driver. This module is added under "drivers/nvme/host/" and future
offload drivers which will register to it will be placed under
"drivers/nvme/hw".
This new driver will be enabled by the Kconfig "NVM Express over Fabrics
TCP offload commmon layer".
In order to support the new transport type, for host mode, no change is
needed.

Each new vendor-specific offload driver will register to this ULP during
its probe function, by filling out the nvme_tcp_ofld_dev->ops and
nvme_tcp_ofld_dev->private_data and calling nvme_tcp_ofld_register_dev
with the initialized struct.

The internal implementation:
- tcp-offload.h:
  Includes all common structs and ops to be used and shared by offload
  drivers.

- tcp-offload.c:
  Includes the init function which registers as a NVMf transport just
  like any other transport.

Usually there is private_data pointer when the upper layer
passes a struct to the lower layer to initialize, that is
not the case here, why don't the device driver just use
container_of to access its internal representation?

Why is there an explicit rq pointer? there are converters from
rq to driver req struct and vice-versa.

Why should a ULP care about this? It's a red-flag to
me that a tcp ulp needs these params.

What if the offload device doesn't support poll queue map?

Understand max_segments maybe needed, but why max_hw_sectors? Is
that something an offload device really cares about?

I think that the 'new' is really an odd interface, it's ok if its
internal to a driver, but not for an interface...

Is this something you actually use? And the documentation talks about
errors which doesn't match the name, not sure what is the purpose of
this at all.

It was based on nvmf_transports_rwsem.

We were following the multiple calls of nvme_tcp_error_recovery() in tcp.c and
nvme_rdma_error_recovery() in rdma.c where the controller reset flow is called
for any error type. We were planning to do something similar and the error
type doesn’t seem to be part of it.

The result is part of the request only after calling nvme_try_complete_req().
Both nvme_try_complete_req() and nvme_complete_rq() should be called
from the ULP layer.

Regarding the async, we need it for the vendor driver to use the common
send_req() for both the regular IO flow and the async flow. We will add
a comment to explain it.

We will remove the last.

Right. TCP ULP doesn’t need these "Output params".

The nvme-tcp-offload should support any queue type.
Each vendor driver shall register with the vendor specific allowed ops,
and it’s allowed to not support poll queue. In that case, the io_queues[]
will include only the supported queues.

This one is for the specific vendor driver (and it could be different between
different vendor drivers), and the nvme-tcp-offload ops should support
any opts.
It will be used in patch 4 – “nvme-tcp-offload: Add controller level
implementation” in tcp-offload.c in nvme_tcp_ofld_check_dev_opts().
We will improve the documentation.

Yes. Offload devices also might have a max_hw_sectors limitation.

We will remove the “new” and instead we will check the ctrl->private_data.

It was added for vendor drivers which will need to initialize resources
for the request.
It’s not in use with the qedn driver – we will remove it.

This is for vendor driver which might need it.
It’s not in use with the qedn driver – we will remove it.
