[PATCH 1/1] nvme: introduce generic per-namespace chardev

Thu Mar 25 12:30:48 GMT 2021
Userspace has not been allowed to I/O to device that's failed to
be initialized. This patch introduces generic per-namespace character
device to allow userspace to I/O regardless the block device is there or
not.
The chardev naming convention will exactly be the same with the existing
blkdev's one. nvme_set_generic_ns_name() introduced in this patch may
look like a duplication of nvme_set_disk_name(), but it's not allowing
controller path specific. It just for per-namespace path specific. So,
the naming will be:
- /dev/nvme-generic-XnY
It also supports multipath which means it will not expose chardev for
the hidden namespace blkdevs (e.g., nvmeXcYnZ). If
/dev/nvme-generic-XnY is created for the ns_head, then I/O request will
be routed to the controller-specified path by the iopolicy in the
subsystem.
This can be controlled by the module parameter `generic_ns` which is
turned on by default.
