Hi I have tested this patchset using fio and a simple script that is available at the URL below. Note testing was performed in a QEMU environment and not on real lightnvm block IO devices. https://github.com/OpenChannelSSD/lightnvm-hw (see the sanity.sh script in the sanity sub-folder).

Patch 1-2 are fixes and preparation for the nvme driver. The first fixes a flag bug. The second allows rq->special in nvme_submit_sync_cmd to be set and used. Patch 3 fixes capacity reporting in null_blk. Patch 4-8 introduces LightNVM and a simple target. Jens, the patches are on top of your for-next tree. Development and further information on LightNVM can be found at: https://github.com/OpenChannelSSD/linux Changes since v3: - Remove dependence on REQ_NVM_GC - Refactor nvme integration to use nvme_submit_sync_cmd for internal commands. - Fix race condition bug on multiple threads on RRPC target. - Rename sysfs entry under the block device from nvm to lightnvm. The configuration is found in /sys/block/*/lightnvm/ Changes since v2: Feedback from Paul Bolle: - Fix license to GPLv2, documentation, compilation. Feedback from Keith Busch: - nvme: Move lightnvm out and into nvme-lightnvm.c. - nvme: Set controller css on lightnvm command set. - nvme: Remove OACS. Feedback from Christoph Hellwig: - lightnvm: Move out of block layer into /drivers/lightnvm/core.c - lightnvm: refactor request->phys_sector into device drivers. - lightnvm: refactor prep/unprep into device drivers. - lightnvm: move nvm_dev from request_queue to gendisk. New - Bad block table support (From Javier). - Update maintainers file. Changes since v1: - Splitted LightNVM into two parts. A get/put interface for flash blocks and the respective targets that implement flash translation layer logic. - Updated the patches according to the LightNVM specification changes. - Added interface to add/remove targets for a block device.
