Add controller reset capability to nvme(4) and ability to explicitly invoke it from nvmecontrol(8). Controller reset will be performed in cases where I/O are repeatedly timing out, the controller reports an unrecoverable condition, or when explicitly requested via IOCTL or an nvme consumer. Since the controller may be in such a state where it cannot even process queue deletion requests, we will perform a controller reset without trying to clean up anything on the controller first.

Add firmware replacement and activation support to nvmecontrol(8) through a new firmware command. NVMe controllers may support up to 7 firmware slots for storing of different firmware revisions. This new firmware command supports firmware replacement (i.e. firmware download) with or without immediate activation, or activation of a previously stored firmware image. It also supports selection of the firmware slot during replacement operations, using IDENTIFY information from the controller to check that the specified slot is valid. Newly activated firmware does not take effect until the new controller reset, either via a reboot or separate 'nvmecontrol reset' command to the same controller.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
NVM Express (NVMe) is a storage protocol standard, for SSDs and other
high-speed storage devices over PCI Express.
.Sh EXAMPLES
.Dl nvmecontrol devlist
.Pp
Display a list of NVMe controllers and namespaces along with their device nodes.
Add controller reset capability to nvme(4) and ability to explicitly invoke it from nvmecontrol(8). Controller reset will be performed in cases where I/O are repeatedly timing out, the controller reports an unrecoverable condition, or when explicitly requested via IOCTL or an nvme consumer. Since the controller may be in such a state where it cannot even process queue deletion requests, we will perform a controller reset without trying to clean up anything on the controller first.

Run a performance test on nvme0ns1 using 32 kernel threads for 30 seconds. Each
thread will issue a single 512 byte read command. Results are printed to
stdout when 30 seconds expires.
