Commit Message

Dmitry Fomichev Oct. 19, 2020, 2:17 a.m. UTC
Added brief descriptions of the new device properties that are
now available to users to configure features of Zoned Namespace
Command Set in the emulator.

This patch is for documentation only, no functionality change.

+ * Setting `zoned` to true selects Zoned Command Set at the namespace.
+ * In this case, the following options are available to configure zoned
+ * operation:
+ *     zone_size=<zone size in bytes, default: 128MiB>
+ *         The number may be followed by K, M, G as in kilo-, mega- or giga.
+ *
+ *     zone_capacity=<zone capacity in bytes, default: zone_size>
+ *         The value 0 (default) forces zone capacity to be the same as zone
+ *         size. The value of this property may not exceed zone size.
+ *
+ *     zone_descr_ext_size=<zone descriptor extension size, default 0>
+ *         This value needs to be specified in 64B units. If it is zero,
+ *         namespace(s) will not support zone descriptor extensions.

+ *
+ *     max_open=<Maximum Open Resources (zones), default: 0 - no limit>

+ *         values assigned to this property may be rounded down and
+ *         result in a lower maximum ZA data size being in effect.
+ *         By setting this property to 0, user can make ZASL to be
+ *         equial to MDTS.

+ *     offline_zones=<the number of offline zones to inject, default: 0>
