Introduce the new functions nvmet_sq_create() and nvmet_cq_create() to allow a target driver to initialize and setup admin and IO queues directly, without needing to execute connect fabrics commands. The helper functions nvmet_check_cqid() and nvmet_check_sqid() are implemented to check the correctness of SQ and CQ IDs when nvmet_sq_create() and nvmet_cq_create() are called. nvmet_sq_create() and nvmet_cq_create() are primarily intended for use with PCI target controller drivers and thus are not well integrated with the current queue creation of fabrics controllers using the connect command. These fabrices drivers are not modified to use these functions. This simple implementation of SQ and CQ management for PCI target controller drivers does not allow multiple SQs to share the same CQ, similarly to other fabrics transports. This is a specification violation. A more involved set of changes will follow to add support for this required completion queue sharing feature.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
