I tried that:

dmesg | grep -i nvme
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/john/Image rdinit=/init
crashkernel=256M@32M console=ttyAMA0,115200 earlycon acpi=force

nvme.poll_queues=2

[ 52.067216] nvme nvme0: 22/0/2 default/read/poll queues

So I get these results:
cpu0 335K
cpu32 346K
cpu64 300K
cpu96 300K

So still not massive changes.

From a quick look at the code, is this then later set for the PCI
device in nvme_pci_configure_admin_queue()?

If you are still keen to investigate more, then can try either of these:

- add iommu.strict=0 to the cmdline

- use perf record+annotate to find the hotspot
- For this you need to enable psuedo-NMI with 2x steps:
CONFIG_ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI=y in defconfig
Add irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1
See
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm64/Kconfig#n1745
Your kernel log should show:
[ 0.000000] GICv3: Pseudo-NMIs enabled using forced ICC_PMR_EL1
synchronisation
But my impression is that this may be a HW implementation issue,
considering we don't see such a huge drop off on our HW.

Thanks,
John
