Subject[PATCH v4] lightnvm: pblk
Date
This patch introduces pblk, a new target for LightNVM implementing a
full host-based FTL. Details on the commit message.

Changes since v3:
* Apply Bart's feedback [1]
* Implement dynamic L2P optimizations for > 32-bit physical media
* geometry (from Matias Bjørling)
* Fix memory leak on GC (Reported by Simon A. F. Lund)
* 8064 is a perfectly round number of lines :)

[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/4/8/172

Changes since v2:
* Rebase on top of Matias' for-4.12/core
* Implement L2P scan recovery to recover L2P table in case of power
failure.
* Re-design disk format to be more flexible in future versions (from
Matias Bjørling)
* Implement per-instance uuid to allow correct recovery without
forcing line erases (from Matias Bjørling)
* Re-design GC threading to have several GC readers and a single
writer that places data on the write buffer. This allows to maximize
the GC write buffer budget without having unnecessary GC writers
competing for the write buffer lock.
* Simplify sysfs interface.
* Refactoring and several code improvements (together with Matias
Bjørling)

Changes since v1:
* Rebase on top of Matias' for-4.12/core
* Move from per-LUN block allocation to a line model. This means that a
whole lines across all LUNs is allocated at a time. Data is still
stripped in a round-robin fashion at a page granurality.
* Implement new disk format scheme, where metadata is stored per line
instead of per LUN. This allows for space optimizations.
* Improvements on GC workqueue management and victim selection.
* Implement sysfs interface to query pblk's operation and statistics.
* Implement a user - GC I/O rate-limiter
* Various bug fixes
