[PATCH v3] tests/nvme: Add admin-passthru+reset race test

Tue Nov 22 19:37:39 PST 2022


Adds a test which runs many formats and controller resets in parallel.
The intent is to expose timing holes in the controller state machine
which will lead to hung task timeouts and the controller becoming
unavailable.

v3:
I noticed I couldn't rely on checking state within the loop because it was
constantly on 'resetting', so I moved the last_live declaration to update when
a reset completes.

I updated the kernel in my QEMU instance to origin/nvme-6.2 (it was on a
previous origin/nvme-6.2), and applied Klaus' format fix to QEMU. This doesn't
crash my QEMU anymore, but now gets stuck in 'connecting'.
