Current Linux kernel (> v5.20) provide ZNS (Zoned Namespace) SSD environment, however, this only support 2^n-sized zone.
For Samsung ZNS (PM9731a) provide small zone size with 96MB which is not 2^n-sized zone.
This entails mainly two problems:
- Linux kernel CAN NOT identify Samsung ZNS SSDs.
- Libzbd library, which is based on WD's ZNS SSD echo system can not provide offset-zone transaltion.
-
Remove the condition which disallows non-2^n zone size ZNS drive to be updated and use generic method to calculate number of zones ragher than relying on log and shift based calculation on zone size. See more detail patch from Samsung
-
Checking if a given sector is aligned to a zone is a common operation that is performed for zoned devices Convert the calculations on zone size to be generic instead of relying on 2^n based logic in the block layer using the helpers wherever possible. See more detail patch from Samsung
# Step 0. Prerequisite
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential libncurses5 libncurses5-dev \
bin86 kernel-package libssl-dev bison flex libelf-dev
# Step 1. Load kernel
cd kernel/linux-5.17.8/
uname -a # Check kernel version
sudo cp /boot/config-CURRENT_KERNEL_VERSION ./.config
sudo make menuconfig
# Step 2. Compile kernel
sudo make-kpkg --J 32 --initrd --revision=1.0 kernel_image
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-5.14.18_1.0_amd64.deb
Fix shift based calculation on zone size.
