Add a test that repeatedly rescans nvme controllers while doing IO
on an nvme namespace connected to these controllers. The purpose
of the test is to make sure that no I/O errors or data corruption
occurs because of the rescan operations.

Could you elaborate why this tests is added? Does it test for a
regression, are there any patches for this? Or is it more let's ensure
this actually works?

The code looks good.

The rationale was to test the kernel patch that I submitted yesterday: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nvme/9de89e5a-04fc-4684-8514-b86884643a5d@suse.de/T/#t

Thanks,

I figured this out later too :) Just going chronology through the
inbox.

I think here usleep may not be available by default on all systems.
For instance, on fedora/rhel I don't have usleep installed in the 
defualt configuration and so I have to first install it. So you may
want to add "usleep" as per-requisite for this test. Moreover, after 
I installed usleep on fedora and ran the above test I see this warning:

warning: usleep is deprecated, and will be removed in near future!

Due to above warning the test fails. So is it possible to replace 
usleep with sleep?

I don't know if I am missing anything here but just curious to know 
for which case $subsys would point to link ending in */nvme?
I think that for all cases $subsys shall point to link which ends 
in */nvme-subsystem, isn't it? I assume here that $TEST_DEV_SYSFS would 
always resolve to a nvme block device.

And the last point: I don't see 053.out file in your patchset. Did you forget
to add this file?

I think I got the answer for the above query, when I disabled the nvme 
multipath in the kernel config, I could see we hit the first case when 
$subsys would point to the link ending in */nvme, so this is not an issue.

The README states that blktests requires GNU coreutils, so yes, that
would be feasible - in principle.

The problem is that bash can't do floating point math, and I want to
be able to sleep for fractions of a second. So I'd need to do something
like this:

usleep() {
    sleep "$(awk "BEGIN { print $1 / 1.e6; }" </dev/null)"
}

But the fork-and-exec to "awk" is slow. millisecond sleep times can't
be realized this way. Anyway, I realize that calling "usleep" also
carries a lot of overhead, and thus "usleep 1000" doesn't do what one
would naïvely expect, either.

The only way I can see to make this work as originally intended is to
implement is as an awk script. The README says that GNU awk is
required, so sleep() with floating point argument is available.

Thanks
Martin
