Why does the number of queues > affect the classic "CMDQ" mode? We only have one queue there, right? These queues indicates the network concurrency, maybe I should use channels or threads. 6 means six threads are deployed on different cores using their own channels to send and receive network packets. > >> In recent days, I implemented a new function without competition with other >> cores to replace arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmdlist() when a core can have an ECMDQ. >> I'm guessing it might get better performance results.

Yes, it would be better to have an actual set of performance data. Now the EMU is used to analyze hardware problems.
