From 20d64911e7580f7e29c0086d67860c18307377d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Belanger Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2022 14:33:45 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] nvme: send uevent on connection up When connectivity with a controller is lost, the driver will keep trying to reconnect once every 10 sec. When connection is restored, user-space apps need to be informed so that they can take proper action. For example, TP8010 introduces the DIM PDU, which is used to register with a discovery controller (DC). The DIM PDU is sent from user-space. The DIM PDU must be sent every time a connection is established with a DC. Therefore, the kernel must tell user-space apps when connection is restored so that registration can happen. The uevent sent is a "change" uevent with environmental data set to: "NVME_EVENT=connected".
