** Description changed: [IMPACT] In the run up to 20.04 release, Broadcom wants to ensure that customers running ubuntu 20.04 have the proper support when using Emulex Fibrechannel cards to use NVMe over FC. This updates nvme-fc and nvme with cherry picks from 5.5 upstream that didn't land in time for the upstream 5.4 release. - Deferring this request would delay customers using NVMe over FC until - February when the first HWE for Focal is released, roughly 9 months from - now. + This will enable NVMe over FC on Broadcom Emulex FC controllers on + Focal. - Here are the kernel and cli updates broadcom requested via email related - to LaunchPad Bug 1855303 to have a complete Broadcom Emulex FC lpfc + Note this is dependent on and requires this bug as well, which updates + the Broadcom lpfc driver and completes the Broadcom Emulex FC lpfc 12.6.0.x solution. + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1855303 [FIXES] Additional patches recommended: ( <commitid> <date> <patchtitle> ) f16583614222 - Sep 27 2019 - nvme-fc: Sync nvme-fc header to FC-NVME-2 53b2b2f59967 - Sep 27 2019 - nvme-fc and nvmet-fc: sync with FC-NVME-2 header changes 44fbf3bb1ac3 - Sep 27 2019 - nvme-fc: Set new cmd set indicator in nvme-fc cmnd iu 7db394848ece - Sep 27 2019 - nvme-fc: clarify error messages bcde5f0fc7d3 - Sep 27 2019 - nvme-fc: ensure association_id is cleared regardless of a Disconnect LS 48c9e85b2346 - Oct 14 2019 - nvme: resync include/linux/nvme.h with nvmecli 64fab7290dc3 - Oct 28 2019 - nvme: Fix parsing of ANA log page These are clean cherry-picks from 5.5 into 5.4 and can be found here: https://code.launchpad.net/~bladernr/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/+ref/1856340-broadcom-nvme-updates These two are already in focal and are only left here for reference as they were part of the original request: 863fbae929c7 - Nov 14 2019 - nvme_fc: add module to ops template to allow module references c869e494ef8b - Nov 21 2019 - nvme-fc: fix double-free scenarios on hw queues [REGRESSION RISK] Low: Patches are already upstream in 5.5 and have been tested there and by Broadcom Emululex.
