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.

Comment sure, but do we really need a warning?

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.

for (pos = 0; pos < NVME_ID_DATA_SIZE; pos += len) {
struct nvme_ns_nid *cur = data + pos;

This needs to be verified based on the type.

Please move all this code into nvme_identify_ns_descs().

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