[PATCH v2] NVMe: Device specific stripe size handling

Keith Busch keith.busch at intel.com
Tue Apr 9 19:13:20 EDT 2013


We have an nvme device that has a concept of a stripe size. IO requests
that do not transfer data crossing a stripe boundary has greater
performance compared to IO that does cross it. This patch sets the
stripe size for the device if the device and vendor ids match one with
this feature and splits IO requests that cross the stripe boundary.

This is dependent on this patch:

As mentioned before, this performs better with this lost-wake fix
discussed here:
