Allow userspace to trigger a reauth (REPLACETLSPSK) from sysfs.
This can be done by writing to the sysfs file.
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/nvme-fabrics/ctl/nvme0/tls_configured_key

Errm. Why 'configured_key'?
The configured_key sysfs attribute is a representation of the --tls-key
attribute when calling 'nvme connect', which in itself should be used
for debugging purposes only. And as such it really cannot be modified.
Please use the 'tls_key' attribute (which holds the negotiated key,
and is available always).
Cheers,
Hannes

I think we should at least be strict to force some value, and document it. Which reminds me that Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-* is missing a lot of nvme attributes it seems :(

I'll have a look at updating this Alistair >
