[ Upstream commit 210b1f6576e8b367907e7ff51ef425062e1468e4 ]

Scheduling reset_work after a nvme subsystem reset is expected to fail
on pcie, but this also prevents potential handling the platform's pcie
services may provide that might successfully recovering the link without
re-enumeration. Such examples include AER, DPC, and power's EEH.

Provide a pci specific operation that safely initiates a subsystem
reset, and instead of scheduling reset work, read back the status
register to trigger a pcie read error.

Since this only affects pci, the other fabrics drivers subscribe to a
generic nvmf subsystem reset that is exactly the same as before. The
loop fabric doesn't use it because nvmet doesn't support setting that
property anyway.

And since we're using the magic NSSR value in two places now, provide a
symbolic define for it.

[ Upstream commit 2c61c97fb12b806e1c8eb15f04c277ad097ec95e ]

In the NVM Express Revision 1.4 spec, Figure 145 describes possible
values for an AER with event type "Error" (value 000b). For a
Persistent Internal Error (value 03h), the host should perform a
controller reset.

Add support for this error using code that already exists for
doing a controller reset. As part of this support, introduce
two utility functions for parsing the AER type and subtype.

This new support was tested in a lab environment where we can
generate the persistent internal error on demand, and observe
both the Linux side and NVMe controller side to see that the
controller reset has been done.

commit 5974ea7ce0f9a5987fc8cf5e08ad6e3e70bb542e upstream.

A NVMe subsystem with multiple controller can have private namespaces
that use the same NSID under some conditions:

 "If Namespace Management, ANA Reporting, or NVM Sets are supported, the
  NSIDs shall be unique within the NVM subsystem. If the Namespace
  Management, ANA Reporting, and NVM Sets are not supported, then NSIDs:
   a) for shared namespace shall be unique; and
   b) for private namespace are not required to be unique."

Reference: Section 6.1.6 NSID and Namespace Usage; NVM Express 1.4c spec.

Make sure this specific setup is supported in Linux.

NVMe TP 4053 – Zoned Namespaces (ZNS) allows host software to
communicate with a non-volatile memory subsystem using zones for NVMe
protocol-based controllers. NVMeOF already support the ZNS NVMe
Protocol compliant devices on the target in the passthru mode. There
are generic zoned block devices like  Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR)
HDDs that are not based on the NVMe protocol.

This patch adds ZNS backend support for non-ZNS zoned block devices as
NVMeOF targets.

This support includes implementing the new command set NVME_CSI_ZNS,
adding different command handlers for ZNS command set such as NVMe
Identify Controller, NVMe Identify Namespace, NVMe Zone Append,
NVMe Zone Management Send and NVMe Zone Management Receive.

With the new command set identifier, we also update the target command
effects logs to reflect the ZNS compliant commands.

NVMe TP 4056 allows controllers to support different command sets.
NVMeoF target currently only supports namespaces that contain
traditional logical blocks that may be randomly read and written. In
some applications there is a value in exposing namespaces that contain
logical blocks that have special access rules (e.g. sequentially write
required namespace such as Zoned Namespace (ZNS)).

In order to support the Zoned Block Devices (ZBD) backend, controllers
need to have support for ZNS Command Set Identifier (CSI).

In this preparation patch, we adjust the code such that it can now
support the default command set identifier. We update the namespace data
structure to store the CSI value which defaults to NVME_CSI_NVM
that represents traditional logical blocks namespace type.

The CSI support is required to implement the ZBD backend for NVMeOF
with host side NVMe ZNS interface, since ZNS commands belong to
the different command set than the default one.

Commands that access LBA contents without a data transfer between the
host historically have not had a spec defined upper limit. The driver
set the queue constraints for such commands to the max data transfer
size just to be safe, but this artificial constraint frequently limits
devices below their capabilities.

The NVMe Workgroup ratified TP4040 defines how a controller may
advertise their non-MDTS limits. Use these if provided and default to
the current constraints if not. Since the Dataset Management command
limits are defined in logical blocks, but without a namespace to tell us
the logical block size, the code defaults to the safe 512b size.
