nvme-fc: add uevent for auto-connect
To support auto-connecting to FC-NVME devices upon their dynamic
appearance, add a uevent that can kick off connection scripts.
uevent is posted against the fc_udev device.
patch set tested with the following rule to kick an nvme-cli connect-all
for the FC initiator and FC target ports. This is just an example for
testing and not intended for real life use.
ACTION=="change", SUBSYSTEM=="fc", ENV{FC_EVENT}=="nvmediscovery", \
ENV{NVMEFC_HOST_TRADDR}=="*", ENV{NVMEFC_TRADDR}=="*", \
RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/nvme connect-all --transport=fc --host-traddr=$env{NVMEFC_HOST_TRADDR} --traddr=$env{NVMEFC_TRADDR} >> /tmp/nvme_fc.log'"
I will post proposed udev/systemd scripts for possible kernel support.
