Cinder

Supporting SPDK NVMEoF RDMA target and volume drivers

Registered by Maciej Szwed

In the recent years, the momentum behind NVMe has increased and is expected to grow even more in the next year.

In this blueprint, we are extending NVMeOF support about Storage Performance Development Kit (SPDK) backend.

A new target, "spdktarget", is added for the LVM target driver, and volume manager, "spdk", for the LVM volume driver. They allow Cinder to use SPDK in order to manage SPDK logical volumes and create/delete subsystems on attaching/detaching an LVM volume to/from an instance.
