[PATCH v11] nvme-fabrics: reject I/O to offline device

Commands get stuck while Host NVMe-oF controller is in reconnect state.
NVMe controller enters into reconnect state when it loses connection with the
target. It tries to reconnect every 10 seconds
(default) until successful reconnection or until reconnect time-out is reached.
The default reconnect time out is 10 minutes.
Applications are expecting commands to complete with success or error within
a certain timeout (30 seconds by default). The NVMe host is enforcing that
timeout while it is connected, never the less, during reconnection, the timeout
is not enforced and commands may get stuck for a long period or even forever.
To fix this long delay due to the default timeout we introduce new session
parameter "fast_io_fail_tmo". The timeout is measured in seconds from the
controller reconnect, any command beyond that timeout is rejected. The new
parameter value may be passed during 'connect'.
The default value of -1 means no timeout (similar to current behavior).
We add a new controller NVME_CTRL_FAILFAST_EXPIRED and respective
delayed work that updates the NVME_CTRL_FAILFAST_EXPIRED flag.
When the controller is entering the CONNECTING state, we schedule the
delayed_work based on failfast timeout value. If the transition is out of
CONNECTING, terminate delayed work item and ensure failfast_expired is
false. If delayed work item expires then set "NVME_CTRL_FAILFAST_EXPIRED"
flag to true.
We also update nvmf_fail_nonready_command() and
nvme_available_path() functions with check the
"NVME_CTRL_FAILFAST_EXPIRED" controller flag.
For multipath (function nvme_available_path()):
The path will not be considered available if
"NVME_CTRL_FAILFAST_EXPIRED" controller flag is set
and the controller in NVME_CTRL_CONNECTING state.
This prevents commands from getting stuck
when available paths have tried to reconnect for too long.

Changes from V10:
1. Fix patch apply issue for nvme-5.11
Changes from V9:
1. Updated to branch nvme-5.11
Changes from V8:
1. Added multipath behavior description as requested by Sagi Grimberg
(Fri Sep 18 16:38:58 EDT 2020)
Changes from V7:
1. Expanded the patch description as requested by James Smart
(Thu Aug 13 11:00:25 EDT 2020)
Changes from V6:
1. Changed according to Hannes Reinecke review:
in nvme_start_failfast_work() and nvme_stop_failfast_work() procedures.
Changes from V5:
1. Drop the "off" string option for fast_io_fail_tmo.
Changes from V4:
1. Remove subsysnqn from dev_info just keep "failfast expired"
in nvme_failfast_work().
2. Remove excess lock in nvme_failfast_work().
3. Change "timeout disabled" value to -1, '0' is to fail I/O right away now.
4. Add "off" string for fast_io_fail_tmo option as a -1 equivalent.
Changes from V3:
1. BUG_FIX: Fix a bug in nvme_start_failfast_work() amd
nvme_stop_failfast_work() when accessing ctrl->opts as it will fail
for PCIe transport when is called nvme_change_ctrl_state()
from nvme_reset_work(), since we don't set the ctrl->opts for
PCIe transport.
2. Line wrap in nvme_start_failfast_work(), nvme_parse_option() and
for macro NVMF_ALLOWED_OPTS definition.
3. Just like all the state change code add a switch for newly
added state handling outside of the state machine in
nvme_state_change().
4. nvme_available_path() add /* fallthru */ after if..break inside
switch which is under list_for_each_entry_rcu().
5. Align newly added member nvmf_ctrl_options fast_io_fail_tmp.
6. Fix the tabs before if in nvme_available_path() and line wrap
for the same.
7. In nvme_failfast_work() use state != NVME_CTRL_CONNECTING
instead of == to get rid of the parentheses and avoid char > 80.
8. Get rid of the ";" at the end of the comment for @fast_io_fail_tmp.
9. Change the commit log style to match the one we have in the NVMe
repo.
Changes from V2:
1. Several coding style and small fixes.
2. Fix the comment for NVMF_DEF_FAIL_FAST_TMO.
3. Don't call functionality from the state machine.
4. Rename fast_fail_tmo -> fast_io_fail_tmo to match SCSI
semantics.
Changes from V1:
1. Add a new session parameter called "fast_fail_tmo". The timeout
is measured in seconds from the controller reconnect, any command
beyond that timeout is rejected. The new parameter value may be
passed during 'connect', and its default value is 30 seconds.
A value of 0 means no timeout (similar to current behavior).
2. Add a controller flag of "failfast_expired".
3. Add dedicated delayed_work that update the "failfast_expired"
controller flag.
4. When entering CONNECTING, schedule the delayed_work based on
failfast timeout value. If transition out of CONNECTING, terminate
delayed work item and ensure failfast_expired is false.
If delayed work item expires: set "failfast_expired" flag to true.
5. Update nvmf_fail_nonready_command() with check the
"failfast_expired" controller flag.
