Commit Message

Dmitry Fomichev Oct. 30, 2020, 2:32 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.

  *
+ * - `zoned.append_size_limit`
+ *   The maximum I/O size in bytes that is allowed in Zone Append command.
+ *   The default is 128KiB. Since internally this this value is maintained as
+ *   ZASL = log2(<maximum append size> / <page size>), some 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, users can make
+ *   ZASL to be equal to MDTS. This property only affects zoned namespaces.
+ *
+ * Setting `zoned` to true selects Zoned Command Set at the namespace.
+ * In this case, the following namespace properties are available to configure
+ * zoned operation:
+ *     zoned.zsze=<zone size in bytes, default: 128MiB>
+ *         The number may be followed by K, M, G as in kilo-, mega- or giga-.
+ *
+ *     zoned.zcap=<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.
+ *
+ *     zoned.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.
+ *
+ *     zoned.max_active=<Maximum Active Resources (zones), default: 0>
+ *         The default value means there is no limit to the number of
+ *         concurrently active zones.
+ *
+ *     zoned.max_open=<Maximum Open Resources (zones), default: 0>
+ *         The default value means there is no limit to the number of
+ *         concurrently open zones.
+ *
+ *     zoned.offline_zones=<the number of offline zones to inject, default: 0>
+ *
+ *     zoned.rdonly_zones=<the number of read-only zones to inject, default: 0>
+ *
+ *     zoned.cross_zone_read=<enable RAZB, default: false>
+ *         Setting this property to true enables Read Across Zone Boundaries.
