The original NVMe API used bit-fields to represent fields in data
structures defined by the specification (e.g. the op-code in the command
data structure). The implementation targeted x86_64 processors and
defined the bit fields for little endian dwords (i.e. 32 bits).
This approach does not work as-is for big endian architectures and was
changed to use a combination of bit shifts and masks to support PowerPC.
Unfortunately, this changed the NVMe API and forces #ifdef's based on
the OS revision level in user space code.
This change reverts to something that looks like the original API, but
it uses bytes instead of bit-fields inside the packed command structure.
As a bonus, this works as-is for both big and little endian CPU
architectures.

- Remove layering violation, when NVMe SIM code accessed CAM internal
device structures to set pointers on controller and namespace data.
Instead make NVMe XPT probe fetch the data directly from hardware.
- Cleanup NVMe SIM code, fixing support for multiple namespaces per
controller (reporting them as LUNs) and adding controller detach support
and run-time namespace change notifications.
- Add initial support for namespace change async events. So far only
in CAM mode, but it allows run-time namespace arrival and departure.
- Add missing nvme_notify_fail_consumers() call on controller detach.
Together with previous changes this allows NVMe device detach/unplug.
Non-CAM mode still requires a lot of love to stay on par, but at least
CAM mode code should not stay in the way so much, becoming much more
self-sufficient.

terrible beyond that due to trucation.

When multiple trims are in the queue, collapse them as much as
possible. At present, this usually results in only a few trims being

hundreds (up to some configurable max).

Now that we're queueing BIO_DELETE requests in the CAM I/O scheduler,
it make sense to try to combine as many as possible into a single
request to send down to hardware. Hopefully, lots of larger requests
like this are better than lots of individual transactions.
Note for future: need to limit based on total size of the trim
request. Should also collapse adjacent ranges where possible to
increase the size of the max payload.

change it after boot-time. However, it will allow easier A/B testing.

I believe that this patch handled the problem from the wrong side.
Instead of making ZFS properly handle large stripe sizes, it made
unrelated driver to lie in reported parameters to workaround that.
Alternative solution for this problem from ZFS side was committed at
r296615.
Discussed with: smh
Intel NVMe controllers have a slow path for I/Os that span a 128KB stripe boundary but ZFS limits ashift, which is derived from d_stripesize, to 13 (8KB) so we limit the stripesize reported to geom(8) to 4KB.
This may result in a small number of additional I/Os to require splitting in nvme(4), however the NVMe I/O path is very efficient so these additional I/Os will cause very minimal (if any) difference in performance or CPU utilisation.
This can be controller by the new sysctl kern.nvme.max_optimal_sectorsize.

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

Also allow admin commands to transfer up to this maximum I/O size, rather
than the artificial limit previously imposed. The larger I/O size is very
beneficial for upcoming firmware download support. This has the added
benefit of simplifying the code since both admin and I/O commands now use
the same maximum I/O size.

conditions and plumb this notifier for nvd(4) to destroy the associated
GEOM disks when a failure occurs.
This requires a bit of work to cover the races when a consumer is sending
I/O requests to a controller that is transitioning to the failed state. To
help cover this condition, add a task to defer completion of I/Os submitted
to a failed controller, so that the consumer will still always receive its
completions in a different context than the submission.
