- Urgent
I am having this issue with 2 Adata XPG GAMMIX S5 256GB drives. Both are seen in the BIOS but I see the following during system start up.
Jul 14 21:56:11 TheWatchtower kernel: nvme nvme1: ignoring ctrl due to duplicate subnqn (nqn.2018-05.com.example:nvme:nvm-subsystem-OUI00E04C).
Jul 14 21:56:11 TheWatchtower kernel: nvme nvme1: Removing after probe failure status: -22
Further digging I came across this *NEW* https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/15/57

Subject: [PATCH] NVME: ignore subnqn for ADATA SX6000LNP
The ADATA SX6000LNP NVMe SSDs have the same subnqn and, due to this, a system with more than one of these SSDs will only have one usable.
[ 0.942706] nvme nvme1: ignoring ctrl due to duplicate subnqn (nqn.2018-05.com.example:nvme:nvm-subsystem-OUI00E04C).
[ 0.943017] nvme nvme1: Removing after probe failure status: -22

There are no firmware updates available from the vendor, unfortunately. Applying the NVME_QUIRK_IGNORE_DEV_SUBNQN quirk for these SSDs resolves the issue, and they all work after this patch:
# nvme list
/dev/nvme0n1 2J1120050420 ADATA SX6000LNP [...]
/dev/nvme1n1 2J1120050540 ADATA SX6000LNP [...]

and this (specific for the Adata drives that use the Realtek Controller) If I need to get more info please let me know
Running lspci | grep Non-Volatile
I get
01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 5762 (rev 01)
23:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 5762 (rev 01)
In a nut shell, if the system has 2 similar drives that don't have a unique NQN the system assumes its a duplicate and doesn't use it.
Cheers,
