This patch implements the RDMA transport for the NVMe over Fabrics target, which allows exporting NVMe over Fabrics functionality over RDMA fabrics (Infiniband, RoCE, iWARP). All NVMe logic is in the generic target and this module just provides a small glue between it and the generic code in the RDMA subsystem.

This enabled target side support for the NVMe protocol, that is
|
|
it allows the Linux kernel to implement NVMe subsystems and
|
|
controllers and export Linux block devices as NVMe namespaces.
|
|
You need to select at least one of the transports below to make this
|
|
functionality useful.
|
|
|
|
To configure the NVMe target you probably want to use the nvmetcli
|
|
tool from http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/nvmetcli.git.
