<title>nvme-tcp: can't set sk_user_data without write_lock</title>

<content type='text'>
The sk_user_data pointer is supposed to be modified only while
holding the write_lock "sk_callback_lock", otherwise
we could race with other threads and crash the kernel.

we can't take the write_lock in nvmet_tcp_state_change()
because it would cause a deadlock, but the release_work queue
will set the pointer to NULL later so we can simply remove
the assignment.

<title>nvme: use return value from blk_execute_rq()</title>

We don't have an nvme status to report if the driver's .queue_rq()
returns an error without dispatching the requested nvme command. Check
the return value from blk_execute_rq() for all passthrough commands so
the caller may know their command was not successful.

If the command is from the target passthrough interface and fails to
dispatch, synthesize the response back to the host as a internal target
error.

For Spec regarding MNAN value:-

If the controller supports Asymmetric Namespace Access Reporting, then
this field shall be set to a non-zero value that is less than or equal
to the NN value.

Instead of using subsys-&gt;max_nsid that gets calculated dynamically,
use NVMET_MAX_NAMESPACES value to report NN. This way we will maintain
the MNAN value spec compliant with NN.

Without this patch, code results in the following error :-

[337976.409142] nvme nvme1: Invalid MNAN value 1024

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.

In current code there exists two backends which are using inline bio
optimization, that adds a duplicate code for freeing the bio.

For Zoned Block Device backend we also use the same optimzation and it
will lead to having duplicate code in the three backends: generic
bdev, passsthru, and generic zns.

Add a helper function to avoid duplicate code and update the respective
backends.

We report error and complete the request when identify cns value is not
handled in nvmet_execute_identify(). This error reporting is also needed
for Zone Block Device backend for NVMeOF target.

Add a helper nvmet_req_cns_error_compplete() to report an error and
complete the request when idenitfy command cns not handled value.
