When we delete a controller, we execute the following:
1. nvme_stop_ctrl() - stop some work elements that may be
inflight or scheduled (specifically also .stop_ctrl
which cancels ctrl error recovery work)
2. nvme_remove_namespaces() - which first flushes scan_work
to avoid competing ns addition/removal
3. continue to teardown the controller
However, if err_work was scheduled to run in (1), it is designed to
cancel any inflight I/O, particularly I/O that is originating from ns
scan_work in (2), but because it is cancelled in .stop_ctrl(), we can
prevent forward progress of (2) as ns scanning is blocking on I/O
(that will never be cancelled).
The race is:
1. transport layer error observed -> err_work is scheduled
2. scan_work executes, discovers ns, generate I/O to it
3. nvme_ctop_ctrl() -> .stop_ctrl() -> cancel_work_sync(err_work)
- err_work never executed
4. nvme_remove_namespaces() -> flush_work(scan_work)
--> deadlock, because scan_work is blocked on I/O that was supposed
to be cancelled by err_work, but was cancelled before executing (see
stack trace [1]).
Fix this by flushing err_work instead of cancelling it, to force it
to execute and cancel all inflight I/O.

TCP transport relies on the routing table to determine which source
address and interface to use when making a connection. Currently, there
is no way to tell from userspace where a connection was made. This
patch exposes the actual source address using a new field named
"src_addr=" in the "address" attribute.
This is needed to diagnose and identify connectivity issues. With the
source address we can infer the interface associated with each
connection.
This was tested with nvme-cli 2.0 to verify it does not have any
adverse effect. The new "src_addr=" field will simply be displayed in
the output of the "list-subsys" or "list -v" commands as shown here.

On reconnect, the number of queues might have changed.
In the case where we have more queues available than previously we try
to access queues which are not initialized yet.
The other case where we have less queues than previously, the
connection attempt will fail because the target doesn't support the
old number of queues and we end up in a reconnect loop.
Thus, only start queues which are currently present in the tagset
limited by the number of available queues. Then we update the tagset
and we can start any new queue.

When we queue requests, we strive to batch as much as possible and also
signal the network stack that more data is about to be sent over a socket
with MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST. This flag looks at the pending requests queued
as well as queue->more_requests that is derived from the block layer
last-in-batch indication.
We set more_request=true when we flush the request directly from
.queue_rq submission context (in nvme_tcp_send_all), however this is
wrongly assuming that no other requests may be queued during the
execution of nvme_tcp_send_all.
Due to this, a race condition may happen where:
1. request X is queued as !last-in-batch
2. request X submission context calls nvme_tcp_send_all directly
3. nvme_tcp_send_all is preempted and schedules to a different cpu
4. request Y is queued as last-in-batch
5. nvme_tcp_send_all context sends request X+Y, however signals for
both MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST because queue->more_requests=true.
==> none of the requests is pushed down to the wire as the network
stack is waiting for more data, both requests timeout.
To fix this, we eliminate queue->more_requests and only rely on
the queue req_list and send_list to be not-empty.

When an error is detected and the host reconnects, the
nvme_tcp_error_recovery_work() function is called and starts
tearing down the io queues and de-allocating them;
If at the same time the "nvme" process deletes the controller via sysfs,
the nvme_tcp_delete_ctrl() gets called and waits until the
nvme_tcp_error_recovery_work() finishes its job; then starts
tearing down the io queues, but at this point they have already
been freed and the mutexes are destroyed.
Calling mutex_lock() against a destroyed mutex triggers a warning:

Currently, command data is only sent in-capsule on the for admin or I/O
commands on queues that indicate support for it. Send fabrics command
data in-capsule for I/O queues as well to avoid needing a separate
H2CData PDU for the connect command.
This is optimization. Without this change, we send the connect command
capsule and data in separate PDUs (CapsuleCmd and H2CData), and must wait
for the controller to respond with an R2T PDU before sending the H2CData.
With the change, we send a single CapsuleCmd PDU that includes the data.
This reduces the number of bytes (and likely packets) sent across the network,
and simplifies the send state machine handling in the driver.

This patch adds two new fabric options 'dhchap_secret' to specify the
pre-shared key (in ASCII respresentation according to NVMe 2.0 section
8.13.5.8 'Secret representation') and 'dhchap_ctrl_secret' to specify
the pre-shared controller key for bi-directional authentication of both
the host and the controller.
Re-authentication can be triggered by writing the PSK into the new

With new API blk_mq_is_reserved_rq() we can tell if a request is from
the reserved pool, so stop passing 'reserved' arg. There is actually
only a single user of that arg for all the callback implementations, which
can use blk_mq_is_reserved_rq() instead.
This will also allow us to stop passing the same 'reserved' around the
blk-mq iter functions next.

We encountered a problem that the disconnect command hangs.
After analyzing the log and stack, we found that the triggering
process is as follows:
CPU0 CPU1
nvme_rdma_error_recovery_work
nvme_rdma_teardown_io_queues
nvme_do_delete_ctrl nvme_stop_queues
nvme_remove_namespaces
--clear ctrl->namespaces

--no ns in ctrl->namespaces
nvme_ns_remove return(because ctrl is deleting)
blk_freeze_queue
blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait
--wait for ns to unquiesce to clean infligt IO, hang forever
This problem was not found in older kernels because we will flush
err work in nvme_stop_ctrl before nvme_remove_namespaces.It does not
seem to be modified for functional reasons, the patch can be revert
to solve the problem.

queue stoppage and inflight requests cancellation is fully fenced from
io_work and thus failing a request from this context. Hence we don't
need to try to guess from the socket retcode if this failure is because
the queue is about to be torn down or not.
We are perfectly safe to just fail it, the request will not be cancelled
later on.
This solves possible very long shutdown delays when the users issues a

Set the queue dying flag and call blk_mq_exit_queue from del_gendisk for
all disks that do not have separately allocated queues, and thus remove
the need to call blk_cleanup_queue for them.
Rename blk_cleanup_disk to blk_mq_destroy_queue to make it clear that
this function is intended only for separately allocated blk-mq queues.
This saves an extra queue freeze for devices without a separately

Put NVMe/TCP sockets in their own class to avoid some lockdep warnings.
Sockets created by nvme-tcp are not exposed to user-space, and will not
trigger certain code paths that the general socket API exposes.
Lockdep complains about a circular dependency between the socket and
filesystem locks, because setsockopt can trigger a page fault with a
socket lock held, but nvme-tcp sends requests on the socket while file
system locks are held.

As per NVMe/TCP specification (revision 1.0a, section 3.6.2.3)
Maximum Host to Controller Data length (MAXH2CDATA): Specifies the
maximum number of PDU-Data bytes per H2CData PDU in bytes. This value
is a multiple of dwords and should be no less than 4,096.
Current code sets H2CData PDU data_length to r2t_length,
it does not check MAXH2CDATA value. Fix this by setting H2CData PDU
data_length to min(req->h2cdata_left, queue->maxh2cdata).
Also validate MAXH2CDATA value returned by target in ICResp PDU,

With commit db5ad6b7f8cd ("nvme-tcp: try to send request in queue_rq
context") r2t and response PDU can get processed while send function
is executing.
Current data digest send code uses req->offset after kernel_sendmsg(),
this creates a race condition where req->offset gets reset before it
is used in send function.
This can happen in two cases -
1. Target sends r2t PDU which resets req->offset.
2. Target send response PDU which completes the req and then req is
used for a new command, nvme_tcp_setup_cmd_pdu() resets req->offset.
Fix this by storing req->offset in a local variable and using
this local variable after kernel_sendmsg().

We should not access request members after the last send, even to
determine if indeed it was the last data payload send. The reason is
that a completion could have arrived and trigger a new execution of the
request which overridden these members. This was fixed by commit
825619b09ad3 ("nvme-tcp: fix possible use-after-completion").
Commit e371af033c56 broke that assumption again to address cases where
multiple r2t pdus are sent per request. To fix it, we need to record the
request data_sent and data_len and after the payload network send we
reference these counters to determine weather we should advance the
request iterator.

When the controller sends us multiple r2t PDUs in a single
request we need to account for it correctly as our send/recv
context run concurrently (i.e. we get a new r2t with r2t_offset
before we updated our iterator and req->data_sent marker). This
can cause wrong offsets to be sent to the controller.
To fix that, we will first know that this may happen only in
the send sequence of the last page, hence we will take
the r2t_offset to the h2c PDU data_offset, and in
nvme_tcp_try_send_data loop, we make sure to increment
the request markers also when we completed a PDU but
we are expecting more r2t PDUs as we still did not send
the entire data of the request.

Dispatching requests inline with the .queue_rq() call may block while
holding the send_mutex. If the tcp io_work also happens to schedule, it
may see the req_list is non-empty, leaving "pending" true and remaining
in TASK_RUNNING. Since io_work is of higher scheduling priority, the
.queue_rq task may not get a chance to run, blocking forward progress
and leading to io timeouts.
Instead of checking for pending requests within io_work, let the queueing
restart io_work outside the send_mutex lock if there is more work to be
done.

The spec says
7.4.6.1 Digest Error handling
When a host detects a data digest error in a C2HData PDU, that host
shall continue processing C2HData PDUs associated with the command and
when the command processing has completed, if a successful status was
returned by the controller, the host shall fail the command with a
non-fatal transport error.
Currently the transport is reseted when a data digest error is
detected. Instead, when a digest error is detected, mark the final
status as NVME_SC_DATA_XFER_ERROR and let the upper layer handle
the error.
In order to keep track of the final result maintain a status field in
nvme_tcp_request object and use it to overwrite the completion queue
status (which might be successful even though a digest error has been
detected) when completing the request.

We cannot detect a (perhaps buggy) controller that is sending us
a completion for a request that was already completed (for example
sending a completion twice), this phenomenon was seen in the wild
a few times.
So to protect against this, we use the upper 4 msbits of the nvme sqe
command_id to use as a 4-bit generation counter and verify it matches
the existing request generation that is incrementing on every execution.
The 16-bit command_id structure now is constructed by:
| xxxx | xxxxxxxxxxxx |
gen request tag
This means that we are giving up some possible queue depth as 12 bits
allow for a maximum queue depth of 4095 instead of 65536, however we
never create such long queues anyways so no real harm done.

In our application, we need a way to force TCP connections to go out a
specific IP interface instead of letting Linux select the interface
based on the routing tables.
Add the 'host-iface' option to allow specifying the interface to use.
When the option host-iface is specified, the driver uses the specified
interface to set the option SO_BINDTODEVICE on the TCP socket before
connecting.
This new option is needed in addtion to the existing host-traddr for
the following reasons:
Specifying an IP interface by its associated IP address is less
intuitive than specifying the actual interface name and, in some cases,
simply doesn't work. That's because the association between interfaces
and IP addresses is not predictable. IP addresses can be changed or can
change by themselves over time (e.g. DHCP). Interface names are
predictable [1] and will persist over time. Consider the following
configuration.
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state ...
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global lo
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enp0s3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ...
link/ether 08:00:27:21:65:ec brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global enp0s3
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
3: enp0s8: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ...
link/ether 08:00:27:4f:95:5c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 100.0.0.100/24 scope global enp0s8
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
The above is a VM that I configured with the same IP address
(100.0.0.100) on all interfaces. Doing a reverse lookup to identify the
unique interface associated with 100.0.0.100 does not work here. And
this is why the option host_iface is required. I understand that the
above config does not represent a standard host system, but I'm using
this to prove a point: "We can never know how users will configure
their systems". By te way, The above configuration is perfectly fine
by Linux.
The current TCP implementation for host_traddr performs a
bind()-before-connect(). This is a common construct to set the source
IP address on a TCP socket before connecting. This has no effect on how
Linux selects the interface for the connection. That's because Linux
uses the Weak End System model as described in RFC1122 [2]. On the other
hand, setting the Source IP Address has benefits and should be supported
by linux-nvme. In fact, setting the Source IP Address is a mandatory
FedGov requirement (e.g. connection to a RADIUS/TACACS+ server).
Consider the following configuration.
$ ip addr list dev enp0s8
3: enp0s8: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc ...
link/ether 08:00:27:4f:95:5c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.56.101/24 brd 192.168.56.255 scope global enp0s8
valid_lft 426sec preferred_lft 426sec
inet 192.168.56.102/24 scope global secondary enp0s8
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet 192.168.56.103/24 scope global secondary enp0s8
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet 192.168.56.104/24 scope global secondary enp0s8
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Here we can see that several addresses are associated with interface
enp0s8. By default, Linux always selects the default IP address,
192.168.56.101, as the source address when connecting over interface
enp0s8. Some users, however, want the ability to specify a different
source address (e.g., 192.168.56.102, 192.168.56.103, ...). The option
host_traddr can be used as-is to perform this function.
In conclusion, I believe that we need 2 options for TCP connections.
One that can be used to specify an interface (host-iface). And one that
can be used to set the source address (host-traddr). Users should be
allowed to use one or the other, or both, or none. Of course, the
documentation for host_traddr will need some clarification. It should
state that when used for TCP connection, this option only sets the
source address. And the documentation for host_iface should say that
this option is only available for TCP connections.
