Thanks, so it seems like the SMMUs have MSI capability and are correctly described as coherent, which means completion polling should be happening in memory and so hopefully not contributing much more than a couple of cross-socket cacheline migrations and/or snoops. Combined with the difference in the perf traces looking a lot smaller than the order-of-magnitude difference in the overall IOPS throughput, I suspect this is overall SMMU overhead exacerbated by the missing NUMA info. If every new 4K block touched by the NVMe means a TLB miss where the SMMU has to walk pagetables from the wrong side of the system, I'm sure that's going to add up. I'd suggest following John's suggestion and getting some baseline figures for just the cross-socket overhead between the CPU and NVMe with the SMMU right out of the picture, then have a hack at the firmware (or pester the system vendor) to see how much of the difference you can make back up by having the SMMU proximity domains described correctly such that there's minimal likelihood of the SMMUs having to make non-local accesses to their in-memory data. FWIW I don't think it should be *too* hard to disassemble the IORT, fill in the proximity domain numbers and valid flags on the SMMU nodes, then assemble it again to load as an override (it's anything involving offsets in that table that's a real pain). Note that you might also need to make sure you have CMA set up and sized appropriately with CONFIG_DMA_PERNUMA_CMA enabled to get the full benefit. Robin.
