This directory contains the implementation of a NVMe driver component.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Brief
|
||
|
|
=====
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The driver supports PCIe NVMe devices matching at least revision 1.1 of
|
||
|
|
the NVMe specification. For now it only supports one name space and uses
|
||
|
|
one completion and one submission queue to handle all I/O requests; one
|
||
|
|
request is limited to 1MiB of data. It lacks any name space management
|
||
|
|
functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuration
|
||
|
|
=============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following config illustrates how the driver is configured:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
!<start name="nvme_drv">
|
||
|
|
! <resource name="ram" quantum="8M"/>
|
||
|
|
! <provides><service name="Block"/></provides>
|
||
|
|
! <config>
|
||
|
|
! <policy label_prefix="client1" writeable="yes"/>
|
||
|
|
! </config>
|
||
|
|
!</start>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Report
|
||
|
|
======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The driver supports reporting of active name spaces, which can be enabled
|
||
|
|
via the configuration 'report' sub-node:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
!<report namespace="yes"/>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The report structure is depicted by the following example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
!<controller model="QEMU NVMe Ctrl" serial="FNRD">
|
||
|
|
! <namespace id="0" block_count="32768" block_size="512"/>
|
||
|
|
!</controller>
