We don't have an nvme status to report if the driver's .queue_rq()
returns an error without dispatching the requested nvme command. Use the
return value from blk_execute_rq() so the caller may know their command
was not successful.

You may need to audit other completion handlers for blk_execute_rq_nowait().
How to get error ret from polled rq?

Why? Those callers already provide their own callback that directly get
the error.

Please see nvme_end_sync_rq() for that driver's polled handler callback.
It already has the error.

But it never looks at it..

The question was how to get ret. I didn't mean to imply the example was
actually using it. :)

See below clarification. I was wondering whether the way you were going to
propose for nvme_end_sync_rq() would establish new convention for other
blk_execute_rq_nowait() completion handlers implementation.

The question was how to let nvme_end_sync_rq() propagate the blk_status_t
error to the ret for __nvme_submit_sync_cmd(). That's part of the problem
here: __nvme_submit_sync_cmd() may return success for a command that
failed submission.

I'm not sure it can be turned into a common pattern. The callbacks are
implementation specific.

Is setting nvme_req(rq)->status for each error return in ->queue_rq()
going to gradually roll out, and eventually skipping the fallback here?

> +               nvme_req(rq)->status = blk_status_to_errno(error);
Casting int negative errno to u16 will get 0xfff., meaning NVME_SC_DNR is set.
Is that always right?
