Individual skill

doca-sta

Use this skill when the user builds an NVMe-over-Fabrics storage target on BlueField with DOCA STA — instantiating doca_sta, declaring doca_sta_subsystem NQNs and namespaces over local NVMe disks via doca_sta_be, validating platform support with doca_sta_cap_is_supported, sizing I/O queue depth, or decoding DOCA_ERROR_* statuses such as IO_FAILED on NVMe reads. Also load it for implied asks like "Identify Controller times out over RoCE", "offload the nvmf target", "NVMe-oF Connect never completes", or "16 I/O queues at depth 1024 — supported?". Refuse and route to the proper owner for raw RDMA movement, packet I/O, steering rules, initiator-side NVMe, or SDK install.

# DOCA STA (Storage Target Acceleration)

## Examples

- **"Offload the nvmf target onto the DPU."** — this is in
  scope. Stand up `doca_sta` + subsystem/namespaces; do not
  rewrite the initiator stack here.
- **"Identify Controller times out over RoCE."** — check
  `doca_sta_cap_is_supported` and queue sizing before
  changing backend disks.
