+            To follow in the footsteps of <code>nvme-cli</code> and <code>libnvme</code>,
+            <code>nvme-stas</code> will use the same Host NQN and ID that

+Installation
+============
+
+Debian / Ubuntu:
+----------------
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+    $ apt-get install nvme-stas
+
+Fedora / Red Hat:
+-----------------
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+    $ dnf install nvme-stas
+
+Python Version
+--------------
+
+The latest Python 3 version is always recommended, since it has all the latest bells and
+whistles. libnvme supports Python 3.6 and above.
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+nvme-stas is built on top of libnvme, which is used to interact with the kernel's NVMe driver (i.e. drivers/nvme/host/). To support all the features of nvme-stas, several changes to the Linux kernel are required. nvme-stas can also operate with older kernels, but with limited functionality. Kernel 5.18 provides all the features needed by nvme-stas. nvme-stas can also work with older kernels that include back-ported changes to the NVMe driver.

+                            BACKGROUND:
+                            By default, <code>stacd</code> will connect to IOCs on the same
+                            interface that was used to retrieve the discovery
+                            log pages. If stafd discovers a DC on an interface
+                            using mDNS, and stafd connects to that DC and
+                            retrieves the log pages, it is expected that the
+                            storage subsystems listed in the log pages are
+                            reachable on the same interface where the DC was
+                            discovered.

+
+                        <para>
+                            For example, let's say a DC is discovered on
+                            interface ens102. Then all the subsystems listed in
+                            the log pages retrieved from that DC must be
+                            reachable on interface ens102. If this doesn't work,
+                            for example you cannot "ping -I ens102 [storage-ip]",
+                            then the most likely explanation is that proxy arp
+                            is not enabled on the switch that the host is
+                            connected to on interface ens102. Whatever you do,
+                            resist the temptation to manually set up the routing
+                            tables or to add alternate routes going over a
+                            different interface than the one where the DC is
+                            located. That simply won't work. Make sure proxy arp
+                            is enabled on the switch first.

+                        <para>
+                            Setting routes won't work because, by default, <code>stacd</code>
+                            uses the SO_BINDTODEVICE socket option when it
+                            connects to IOCs. This option is used to force a
+                            socket connection to be made on a specific interface
+                            instead of letting the routing tables decide where
+                            to connect the socket. Even if you were to manually
+                            configure an alternate route on a different interface,
+                            the connections (i.e. host to IOC) will still be
+                            made on the interface where the DC was discovered by
+                            stafd.

+                DCs notify hosts of connectivity configuration changes by sending
+                AENs indicating a "Discovery Log" change. The host uses these AENs as
+                a trigger to issue a Get Log Page command. The response to this command
+                is used to update the list of DLPEs containing the controllers
+                the host is allowed to access.
+                Upon reception of the current DLPEs, the host will determine

+                            In theory, hosts should only connect to IOCs that have
+                            been zoned for them. Connections to IOCs that a host
+                            is not zoned to have access to should simply not exist.
+                            In practice, however, users may not want hosts to
+                            disconnect from all IOCs in reaction to connectivity
+                            configuration changes (or at least for some of the IOC
+                            connections).

+                            Some users may prefer for IOC connections to be "sticky" 
+                            and only be removed manually (<code>nvme-cli</code> or 
+                            <varname>exclude=</varname>) or removed by a system 
+                            reboot. Specifically, they don't want IOC connections 
+                            to be removed unexpectedly on DLPE removal. These users 
+                            may want to set <varname>disconnect-scope</varname>
+                            to <parameter>no-disconnect</parameter>.

+                            It is important to note that when IOC connections 
+                            are removed, ongoing I/O transactions will be 
+                            terminated immediately. There is no way to tell what
+                            happens to the data being exchanged when such an abrupt
+                            termination happens. If a host was in the middle of writing
+                            to a storage subsystem, there is a chance that outstanding
+                            I/O operations may not successfully complete.

+                            The NCC bit (Not Connected to CDC) is a bit returned
+                            by the CDC in the EFLAGS field of the DLPE. Only CDCs
+                            will set the NCC bit. DDCs will always clear NCC to
+                            0. The NCC bit is a way for the CDC to let hosts
+                            know that the subsystem is currently not reachable
+                            by the CDC. This may indicate that the subsystem is
+                            currently down or that there is an outage on the
+                            section of the network connecting the CDC to the
+                            subsystem.

+                            If a host is currently failing to connect to an I/O
+                            controller and if the NCC bit associated with that
+                            I/O controller is asserted, the host can decide to
+                            stop trying to connect to that subsystem until
+                            connectivity is restored. This will be indicated by
+                            the CDC when it clears the NCC bit.

+                            The parameter <varname>connect-attempts-on-ncc=</varname>
+                            controls whether <code>stacd</code> will take the
+                            NCC bit into account when attempting to connect to
+                            an I/O Controller. Setting <varname>connect-attempts-on-ncc=</varname>
+                            to 0 means that <code>stacd</code> will ignore
+                            the NCC bit and will keep trying to connect. Setting
+                            <varname>connect-attempts-on-ncc=</varname> to a
+                            non-zero value indicates the number of connection
+                            attempts that will be made before <code>stacd</code>
+                            gives up trying. Note that this value should be set
+                            to a value greater than 1. In fact, when set to 1,
+                            <code>stacd</code> will automatically use 2 instead.
+                            The reason for this is simple. It is possible that a
+                            first connect attempt may fail.

+                            DCs are automatically discovered using DNS-SD/mDNS.
+                            mDNS provides the DC's IP address and the interface

+                            SO_BINDTODEVICE to force the connection to be made
+                            on a specific interface instead of letting the

+                            <code>stafd</code> does not ignore the interface by

+                            a Get DLP command should contain all the NVM subsystems

+                        persistence. In other words, configuration acquired through
+                        zeroconf (mDNS service discovery) will be removed
+                        immediately when mDNS no longer reports the presence of

+                        is lost. A value of -1 means that configuration acquired

+
+                    <para>
+                        This is used for the case where a DC that was discovered
+                        through mDNS service discovery no longer advertises
+                        itself through mDNS and can no longer be connected to.
+                        For example, the DC had some catastrophic failure
+                        (e.g. power surge) and needs to be replaced. In that
+                        case, the connection to that DC can never be restored
+                        and a replacement DC will be needed. The replacement
+                        DC will likely have a different NQN (or IP address).
+                        In that scenario, the host won't be able to determine
+                        that the old DC is not coming back. It won't know either
+                        that a newly discovered DC is really the replacement for
+                        the old one. For that reason, the host needs a way to
+                        "age" zeroconf-acquired configuration  and remove it
+                        automatically after a certain amount of time. This is
+                        what this parameter is for.

+                    Controllers that should be excluded can be specified with the
+                    <varname>exclude=</varname> option. Using mDNS to
+                    automatically discover and connect to controllers, can result
+                    in unintentional connections being made. This keyword allows
+                    configuring the controllers that should not be connected to.

+                <para>
+                    The syntax is the same as for "controller", except that only

+                    Note 1: A minimal match approach is used to eliminate unwanted
+                    controllers. That is, you do not need to specify all the
+                    parameters to identify a controller. Just specifying the
+                    <parameter>host-iface</parameter>, for example, can be used to
+                    exclude all controllers on an interface.

+
+                <para>
+                    Note 2: <varname>exclude=</varname> takes precedence over
+                    <varname>controller</varname>. A controller specified by the
+                    <varname>controller</varname> keyword, can be eliminated by
+                    the <varname>exclude=</varname> keyword.

+            interoperate with the configuration of <command>nvme-cli</command>
+            and <command>libnvme</command>. <code>nvme-stas</code> allows one to
+            save individual parameters such as the Host NQN and ID outside of
+            <filename>/etc/stas/sys.conf</filename>. This allows, for example,
+            using the same default Host NQN and ID defined by
+            <command>nvme-cli</command> and <command>libnvme</command> in
+            <filename>/etc/nvme/hostnqn</filename> and <filename>/etc/nvme/hostid</filename>
+            respectively. To tell <code>nvme-stas</code> that you want to use the
+            those files, simply use <command>stasadm</command>'s
+            <option>--file=FILE</option> option.
