lightnvm: Support for Open-Channel SSDs Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer (FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features of SSDs. LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection, and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata persistence are still handled by the device. The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and (multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store, object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be application-specific.

Say Y here to get to enable Open-channel SSDs.
Open-Channel SSDs implement a set of extension to SSDs, that
exposes direct access to the underlying non-volatile memory.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled
only do this if you know what you are doing.

bool "Open-Channel SSD debugging support"
lightnvm: do not compile in debugging by default The LightNVM module exposes a debug interface when CONFIG_NVM_DEBUG is set. This interfaces takes a string to configure media managers and targets. Make sure this interface is only exposed when chosen deliberately. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

It is required to create/remove targets without IOCTLs.
rrpc: Round-robin sector target with cost-based gc This target allows an Open-Channel SSD to be exposed asas a block device. It implements a round-robin approach for sector allocation, together with a greedy cost-based garbage collector.

Allows an open-channel SSD to be exposed as a block device to the
host. The target is implemented using a linear mapping table and
cost-based garbage collection. It is optimized for 4K IO sizes.
