This patchset implemets NVMe Namespace Descriptor Identification as of
NVMe 1.3. The Namespace Descriptor Identification allows a NVMe host
to query several Namespace Identification mechanisms, such as EUI-64,
NGUID and UUID from the target. If more than one value is set by the
target, it can transmit all set values to the host.

The Namespace Identification Descriptor list is the only way a target
can identify itself via the newly introduced UUID to the host (instead
of the EUI-64 or NGUID).

Both the Host and Target side are implemented. In order to get the
Linux Host to send the Linux target implementation a Namespace
Descriptor Identification command, you have to change the target's
announced version code to at least 1.3.

Unfortunately the host side already did have a sysfs attribute called
'uuid' which represented the NGUID, so precautions have been taken to
not break any existing userspace.

While I was already touching the relevant code paths, I decided to
also include the EUI-64 in the 'Identify Namespace' command response.

The code is tested using the nvme-loop loopback target and cut against
the nvme tree's nvme-4.12 branch.

A patch for nvmetcli will follow shortly.

Johannes Thumshirn (7):
nvme: rename uuid to nguid in nvme_ns
nvmet: add uuid field to nvme_ns and populate via configfs
nvmet: add eui64 field to nvme_ns and populate via configfs
nvme: also report include the EUI-64 in identify NS report
nvmet: implement namespace identify descriptor list
nvme: get list of namespace descriptors
nvme: provide UUID value to userspace

If a target identifies itself as NVMe 1.3 compliant, try to get the
list of Namespace Identification Descriptors and populate the UUID,
NGUID and EUI64 fileds in the NVMe namespace structure with these
values.

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are EUI-64, NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our
nvme_ns structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no
value has been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode"
back to the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older
implementations without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

Personally, I don't like the dependency on version 1.3; especially
seeing that we're not supporting all 1.3 features (yet).

Meaning to test this we'd need to keep an additional out-of-tree patch,
which is not very appealing to me.

Maybe it's an idea to add another sysfs attribute to nvmet allowing us
to specify the version number? That would make life _so_ much easier.

But the patch itself is okay.

Is there any good use case for bothering with this identifier that's
too short to actually be useful?

Eww. This looks pretty sketchy and at least needs a good comment in
the source. Maybe even a printk_ratelimited warning.

Mostly consistency. The current nvme host code has the EUI sprinkled all
around. Sure I can drop it, but then what's the point in evaluating it
on the host side? Other targets may send it, so we need in on the host
and do we care about potentially awkward host implementations with Linux
as a target? Also it's rather handy for testing as well, after all it's
not too much and complex code.

There's only one place in the host code proper (discounting the
scsi translation mess), and that's because the field is still better
than not having any uniqueue identifier. But I don't think we should
spread it any further.

Thanks. No really required but nice would be a nvme-cli subcommand
to read the values as well.

If a target identifies itself as NVMe 1.3 compliant, try to get the
list of Namespace Identification Descriptors and populate the UUID,
NGUID and EUI64 fileds in the NVMe namespace structure with these
values.

This patchset implemets NVMe Namespace Descriptor Identification as of
NVMe 1.3. The Namespace Descriptor Identification allows a NVMe host
to query several Namespace Identification mechanisms, such as EUI-64,
NGUID and UUID from the target. If more than one value is set by the
target, it can transmit all set values to the host.

The Namespace Identification Descriptor list is the only way a target
can identify itself via the newly introduced UUID to the host (instead
of the EUI-64 or NGUID).

Both the Host and Target side are implemented. In order to get the
Linux Host to send the Linux target implementation a Namespace
Descriptor Identification command, you have to change the target's
announced version code to at least 1.3.

Unfortunately the host side already did have a sysfs attribute called
'uuid' which represented the NGUID, so precautions have been taken to
not break any existing userspace.

The code is tested using the nvme-loop loopback target and cut against
the nvme tree's nvme-4.12 branch.

A patch for nvmetcli will follow shortly.

Changes to v0:
* Fixed wrong size of 4069 and replaced it with SZ_4K (Max)
* Add constants for UUID, NGUID and EUI-64 length (Max)
* Drop EUI-64 Support on target side (Christoph)
* Use uuid_be instead of u8[] (Christoph)
* Add ability to override target's version (Hannes)
* Change hard coded magic 4096 and 0x1000 to SZ_4k in drivers/nvme/*

Johannes Thumshirn (7):
nvme: rename uuid to nguid in nvme_ns
nvmet: add uuid field to nvme_ns and populate via configfs
nvmet: implement namespace identify descriptor list
nvme: get list of namespace descriptors
nvme: provide UUID value to userspace
nvme: change magic 4096 to SZ_4K
nvmet: allow overriding the NVMe VS via configfs

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are EUI-64, NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our
nvme_ns structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no
value has been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode"
back to the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older
implementations without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

The uuid field in the nvme_ns structure represents the nguid field
from the identify namespace command. And as NVMe 1.3 introduced an
UUID in the NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor this will
collide.

So rename the uuid to nguid to prevent any further
confusion. Unfortunately we export the nguid to sysfs in the uuid
sysfs attribute, but this can't be changed anymore without possibly
breaking existing userspace.

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

Allow overriding the announced NVMe Version of a via configfs.

This is particularly helpful when debugging new features for the host
or target side without bumping the hard coded version (as the target
might not be fully compliant to the announced version yet).

No need for the cast. But we can do void pointer arithmetics in the
kernel anyway, so possible we could just declare this void.

And maybe just call the argument data and operate on that.

Can you split all the new structures in nvme.h into a separate patch
at the beginning of the series?

> + static const int buf_size = SZ_4K;

Please add a NVME_IDENTIFY_DATA_SIZE define to nvme.h (and I'd slighty
prefer to define it to 4096 instead of the odd SZ_4K). And also replace
all the places where we use a magic 4096 for the identify payload with
it.

No need for the dynamic allocation. Just do a straight nvmet_copy_to_sgl
from the stack for each element.

E.g. something like

struct nvme_ns_identifier_hdr nih;

...

memset(&nih, 0, sizeof(nih));
nih.nidt = NVME_NIDT_UUID;
nih.nidl = NVME_NIDT_UUID_LEN;
status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, off, &nih, sizeof(nih));
if (status)
goto out_put_ns;
off += sizeof(nih);

status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, off, &ns->uuid,
sizeof(ns->uuid));

goto out_put_ns;
off += sizeof(ns->uuid);

It is. Just bump to 1.3, please as Identify 3h is the only mandatory
change: http://nvmexpress.org/changes/

Actually, I still do like this.
With it it'll be very easy to test version compliance; and validate our
initiator behaviour against older versions.

This patchset implemets NVMe Namespace Descriptor Identification as of
NVMe 1.3. The Namespace Descriptor Identification allows a NVMe host
to query several Namespace Identification mechanisms, such as EUI-64,
NGUID and UUID from the target. If more than one value is set by the
target, it can transmit all set values to the host.

The Namespace Identification Descriptor list is the only way a target
can identify itself via the newly introduced UUID to the host (instead
of the EUI-64 or NGUID).

Both the Host and Target side are implemented. In order to get the
Linux Host to send the Linux target implementation a Namespace
Descriptor Identification command, you have to change the target's
announced version code to at least 1.3.

Unfortunately the host side already did have a sysfs attribute called
'uuid' which represented the NGUID, so precautions have been taken to
not break any existing userspace.

While I was already touching the relevant code paths, I decided to
also include the EUI-64 in the 'Identify Namespace' command response.

The code is tested using the nvme-loop loopback target and cut against
the nvme tree's nvme-4.12 branch.

Patches for nvmetcli and nvme-cli will follow shortly.

Changes to v1:
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Christoph and Hannes for unchanged patches
* Added patch introducing new structs at the beginning (Christoph)
* Dropped SZ_4K patch
* Got rid of dynamic memory allocation on the target side (Christoph)
* Reworked host side parser (Christoph)
* Check length inside type check in the host parser (Max)

Changes to v0:
* Fixed wrong size of 4069 and replaced it with SZ_4K (Max)
* Add constants for UUID, NGUID and EUI-64 length (Max)
* Drop EUI-64 Support on target side (Christoph)
* Use uuid_be instead of u8[] (Christoph)
* Add ability to override target's version (Hannes)
* Change hard coded magic 4096 and 0x1000 to SZ_4k in drivers/nvme/*

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our nvme_ns
structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no value has
been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode" back to
the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older implementations
without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

Also as the Namespace Identify Descriptor list is the only mandatory
feature change between 1.2.1 and 1.3.0 we can bump the advertised
version as well.

The uuid field in the nvme_ns structure represents the nguid field
from the identify namespace command. And as NVMe 1.3 introduced an
UUID in the NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor this will
collide.

So rename the uuid to nguid to prevent any further
confusion. Unfortunately we export the nguid to sysfs in the uuid
sysfs attribute, but this can't be changed anymore without possibly
breaking existing userspace.

Allow overriding the announced NVMe Version of a via configfs.

This is particularly helpful when debugging new features for the host
or target side without bumping the hard coded version (as the target
might not be fully compliant to the announced version yet).

Sorry for the naming clash. Not sure why I didn't use the obvious name
for this file in the first place.

FWIW, tools should have been using the 'wwid' attribute, which returns
either EUI64 or NGUID so a unique identifier can be gotten from a
single file without checking for the existence of either. That should
help not break backward compatibility, but I've no idea if anything
actually relies on 'uuid' returning the NGUID.

Yep, that's why I though I'd be clever and place this hack in there. I
think we can remove it in 1-2 years or so when most/all userspace has
adopted to the change (there shouldn't be too much apart from some hand
crafted udev rules anyways).

Allow overriding the announced NVMe Version of a via configfs.

This is particularly helpful when debugging new features for the host
or target side without bumping the hard coded version (as the target
might not be fully compliant to the announced version yet).

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our nvme_ns
structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no value has
been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode" back to
the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older implementations
without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

Also as the Namespace Identify Descriptor list is the only mandatory
feature change between 1.2.1 and 1.3.0 we can bump the advertised
version as well.

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

The uuid field in the nvme_ns structure represents the nguid field
from the identify namespace command. And as NVMe 1.3 introduced an
UUID in the NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor this will
collide.

So rename the uuid to nguid to prevent any further
confusion. Unfortunately we export the nguid to sysfs in the uuid
sysfs attribute, but this can't be changed anymore without possibly
breaking existing userspace.

This patchset implemets NVMe Namespace Descriptor Identification as of
NVMe 1.3. The Namespace Descriptor Identification allows a NVMe host
to query several Namespace Identification mechanisms, such as EUI-64,
NGUID and UUID from the target. If more than one value is set by the
target, it can transmit all set values to the host.

The Namespace Identification Descriptor list is the only way a target
can identify itself via the newly introduced UUID to the host (instead
of the EUI-64 or NGUID).

Both the Host and Target side are implemented. In order to get the
Linux Host to send the Linux target implementation a Namespace
Descriptor Identification command, you have to change the target's
announced version code to at least 1.3.

Unfortunately the host side already did have a sysfs attribute called
'uuid' which represented the NGUID, so precautions have been taken to
not break any existing userspace.

While I was already touching the relevant code paths, I decided to
also include the EUI-64 in the 'Identify Namespace' command response.

The code is tested using the nvme-loop loopback target and cut against
the nvme tree's nvme-4.12 branch.

A patch for nvmetcli will follow shortly.

This should be uuid_le to match the rest of NVMe.

Also, it would be useful to generate a random default with uuid_le_gen()
for a better out-of-the-box experience.

It shouldn't. A RFC4122 uuid is always in "big endian" notation.
A little endiane uuid doesn't exist, it's called a GUID in Wintel
speak and isn't used in NVMe. My new uuid tree tries to fix up
the confusion by renaming our uuid_be type to uuid_t and uuid_le
to guid_t.

That's actually a good point. Just needs to be uuid_be_gen/uuid_gen :)

Thanks for clarifying.

At one point we had a uuid before we allowed user-space to pass a nguid
and it was little endian, but it was a hack anyway.

The uuid field in the nvme_ns structure represents the nguid field
from the identify namespace command. And as NVMe 1.3 introduced an
UUID in the NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor this will
collide.

So rename the uuid to nguid to prevent any further
confusion. Unfortunately we export the nguid to sysfs in the uuid
sysfs attribute, but this can't be changed anymore without possibly
breaking existing userspace.

Allow overriding the announced NVMe Version of a via configfs.

This is particularly helpful when debugging new features for the host
or target side without bumping the hard coded version (as the target
might not be fully compliant to the announced version yet).

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our nvme_ns
structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no value has
been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode" back to
the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older implementations
without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

Also as the Namespace Identify Descriptor list is the only mandatory
feature change between 1.2.1 and 1.3.0 we can bump the advertised
version as well.

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

Nit: _hdr is usually associated with a message or alike.

Maybe nvme_ns_id_desc is more consistent with the spec language.

Plain override in case a namespace is fed with both uuid and nguid?

Perhaps we should try to help the user a bit here and either fail
the user trying to populate both in configfs or pick one here.

If none exist we return whatever the the stack contains in hdr...
Lets initialize hdr with {} at the declaration.

What about a little helper like this: ?

static u16 nvmet_copy_ns_identifier(struct nvmet_req *req, u8 type, u8 len,
void *id, off_t *off)
{
struct nvme_ns_identifier_hdr hdr = {
.nidt = type,
.nidl = len,
};
u16 status;

status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, *off, &hdr, sizeof(hdr));
if (status)
return status;
*off += sizeof(hdr);

status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, off, id, len);
if (status)
return status;
*off += len;

return 0;
}

Please drop the warning and return, the spec says hosts should ignore
unknown types. This is important to future proof for new types that
could be added.

Just merge nvme_parse_ns_descs into the caller?

I think this needs to zero the remainder of the 4k
buffer, quoting the spec:

"The controller may return any number of variable length Namespace
Identification Descriptor structures that fit into the 4096 byte Identify
payload. All remaining bytes after the namespace identification descriptor
structures should be cleared to 0h, and the host shall interpret a
Namespace Identifier Descriptor Length (NIDL) value of 0h as the end of
the list. If the hosts sees an unknown descriptor type it should
continue parsing the structure."

It could be easily done by copying the zero page to userspace.
Eventually I want to add a helper to zero parts of a sglist to
lib/scatterlist.c, but I don't want to burden that on you.

The descriptor itself includes the actual value, that's why
I suggested adding the _hdr prefix. But I'm fine going either way.

Nit Dop we really need all these variables? Why not:

return snprintf(page, PAGE_SIZE, "%d %d %d\n", NVME_MAJOR(subsys->ver),
NVME_MINOR(subsys->ver), NVME_TERRIARY(subsys->ver));

?

Also except for the 1.2.1 oddbackk NVMe versions usually have two
components, and should be printed as such if the tertiary version is
0.

Same issue here. I also have to say I'm a bit sceptical about
just being able to set versions as there are various dependencies
on it. E.g. for 1.0 the version field in identify namespace doesn't
even exists and should be cleared to 0.

I think TERRIARY should be TERTIARY.

Also, please stay consistent with the rest of the driver by logging the
correct device prefix using ctrl->device and not ctrl->dev.

(if we have some ctrl->dev left-overs, can you also send a patch to fix?)

Can you rebase on top of the new uuid_t type and the plain uuid_*
prefixed helpers here:

I'll declare that branch stable soon and don't want to introduce

The uuid field in the nvme_ns structure represents the nguid field
from the identify namespace command. And as NVMe 1.3 introduced an
UUID in the NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor this will
collide.

So rename the uuid to nguid to prevent any further
confusion. Unfortunately we export the nguid to sysfs in the uuid
sysfs attribute, but this can't be changed anymore without possibly
breaking existing userspace.

Allow overriding the announced NVMe Version of a via configfs.

This is particularly helpful when debugging new features for the host

This patchset implemets NVMe Namespace Descriptor Identification as of
NVMe 1.3. The Namespace Descriptor Identification allows a NVMe host
to query several Namespace Identification mechanisms, such as EUI-64,
NGUID and UUID from the target. If more than one value is set by the
target, it can transmit all set values to the host.

The Namespace Identification Descriptor list is the only way a target
can identify itself via the newly introduced UUID to the host (in
addition to the EUI-64 or NGUID).

Both the Host and Target side are implemented. In order to get the
Linux Host to send the Linux target implementation a Namespace
Descriptor Identification command, you have to change the target's
announced version code to at least 1.3.

Unfortunately the host side already did have a sysfs attribute called
'uuid' which represented the NGUID, so precautions have been taken to
not break any existing userspace.

The code is tested using the nvme-loop loopback target and cut against
Christoph's uuid/for-next branch.

A patch for nvmetcli and nvme-cli will follow shortly.

Changes to v4:
* Add nvmet_copy_ns_identifier() helper (Christoph)
* Move 'nvmet: use NVME_IDENTIFY_DATA_SIZE' to beginning of series (Christoph)
* Protect subsystem version with nvmet_config_sem (Christoph)
* Get rid of local variables in nvmet_subsys_version_show (Christoph)
* Included dots in subsystem version (Sagi)
* Merge nvme_parse_ns_descs() into nvme_identify_ns_descs() (Christoph)
* Skip unknown NS descriptors in nvme_identify_ns_descs() (Christoph)
* Add sg_zeroout_area() helper to lib/scatterlist.c (Christoph)
* I'm not sure if I shall use nvme_ns_identifier_hdr or nvme_ns_id_desc
* Rebased on Christoph's uuid/for-next branch
* Collected Acks

Changes to v3:
* Autogenerate UUID on target NS allocation (Sagi)

Changes to v2:
* Added Max's Reviewed-by
* Make series bisectable

Changes to v1:
* Added Reviewed-by tags from Christoph and Hannes for unchanged patches
* Added patch introducing new structs at the beginning (Christoph)
* Dropped SZ_4K patch
* Got rid of dynamic memory allocation on the target side (Christoph)
* Reworked host side parser (Christoph)
* Check length inside type check in the host parser (Max)

Changes to v0:
* Fixed wrong size of 4069 and replaced it with SZ_4K (Max)
* Add constants for UUID, NGUID and EUI-64 length (Max)
* Drop EUI-64 Support on target side (Christoph)
* Use uuid_be instead of u8[] (Christoph)
* Add ability to override target's version (Hannes)
* Change hard coded magic 4096 and 0x1000 to SZ_4k in drivers/nvme/*

Johannes Thumshirn (9):
scatterlist: add sg_zeroout_area() helper
nvmet: use NVME_IDENTIFY_DATA_SIZE
nvme: introduce NVMe Namespace Identification Descriptor structures
nvme: rename uuid to nguid in nvme_ns
nvmet: implement namespace identify descriptor list
nvmet: add uuid field to nvme_ns and populate via configfs
nvme: get list of namespace descriptors
nvme: provide UUID value to userspace
nvmet: allow overriding the NVMe VS via configfs

Now that we have a way for getting the UUID from a target, provide it
to userspace as well.

Unfortunately there is already a sysfs attribute called UUID which is
a misnomer as it holds the NGUID value. So instead of creating yet
another wrong name, create a new 'nguid' sysfs attribute for the
NGUID. For the UUID attribute add a check wheter the namespace has a
UUID assigned to it and return this or return the NGUID to maintain
backwards compatibility. This should give userspace a chance to catch
up.

A NVMe Identify NS command with a CNS value of '3' is expecting a list
of Namespace Identification Descriptor structures to be returned to
the host for the namespace requested in the namespace identify
command.

This Namespace Identification Descriptor structure consists of the
type of the namespace identifier, the length of the identifier and the
actual identifier.

Valid types are NGUID and UUID which we have saved in our nvme_ns
structure if they have been configured via configfs. If no value has
been assigened to one of these we return an "invalid opcode" back to
the host to maintain backward compatibiliy with older implementations
without Namespace Identify Descriptor list support.

Also as the Namespace Identify Descriptor list is the only mandatory
feature change between 1.2.1 and 1.3.0 we can bump the advertised
version as well.
