Subject: nvme: send uevent on connection up
Patch-mainline: v5.18-rc1
Git-commit: 20d64911e7580f7e29c0086d67860c18307377d7
References: jsc#SLE-23643
When connectivity with a controller is lost, the driver will keep
trying to reconnect once every 10 sec. When connection is restored,
user-space apps need to be informed so that they can take proper
action. For example, TP8010 introduces the DIM PDU, which is used to
register with a discovery controller (DC). The DIM PDU is sent from
user-space. The DIM PDU must be sent every time a connection is
established with a DC. Therefore, the kernel must tell user-space apps
when connection is restored so that registration can happen.
The uevent sent is a "change" uevent with environmental data
set to: "NVME_EVENT=connected".
