[RFC PATCH V3 0/8] hw/block/nvme: support multi-path for ctrl/ns

[Minwoo Im]

Hello,

This patch series is third one to support multi-controller and namespace
sharing in multi-path.  This series introduced subsystem scheme to
manage controller(s) and namespace(s) in the subsystem.

This series has new patches from the V2:  'detached' parameter has been
added to the nvme-ns device.  This will decide whether to attach the
namespace to controller(s) in the current subsystem or not.  If it's
given with true, then it will be just allocated in the subsystem, but
not attaching to any controllers in the subsystem.  Otherwise, it will
automatically attach to all the controllers in the subsystem.  The other
t hing is that the last patch implemented Identify Active Namespace ID
List command handler apart from the Allocated Namespace ID List.

Run with:
  -device nvme,serial=qux,id=nvme3
  -device nvme-ns,id=ns3,drive=drv12,nsid=3,bus=nvme3

  -device nvme-subsys,id=subsys0
  -device nvme,serial=foo,id=nvme0,subsys=subsys0
  -device nvme,serial=bar,id=nvme1,subsys=subsys0
  -device nvme,serial=baz,id=nvme2,subsys=subsys0
  -device nvme-ns,id=ns1,drive=drv10,nsid=1,subsys=subsys0,detached=true
  -device nvme-ns,id=ns2,drive=drv11,nsid=2,bus=nvme2

Now we have [allocated|not-allocated]/[attached/detached] scheme for
namespaces and controllers.  The next series is going to be to support
namespace management and attachment with few Identify command handlers.

Please review.

Thanks!

Since RFC V2:
  - Rebased on nvme-next branch with trivial patches from the previous
    version(V2) applied. (Klaus)
  - Fix enumeration type name convention with NvmeIdNs prefix. (Klaus)
  - Put 'cntlid' to NvmeCtrl instance in nvme_init_ctrl() which was
    missed in V2.
  - Added 'detached' parameter to nvme-ns device to decide whether to
    attach or not to controller(s) in the subsystem. (Klaus)
  - Implemented Identify Active Namespace ID List aprt from Identify
    Allocated Namespace ID List by removing fall-thru statement.

Since RFC V1:
  - Updated namespace sharing scheme to be based on nvme-subsys
    hierarchy.
