In your last email, the results are the following with irq mode io_uring:

 cpu0  497K
 cpu4  307K
 cpu32 566K
 cpu64 488K
 cpu96 508K

So looks you get much worse result with real io_polling?

Yeah, you are right, the pci numa node has been used.

OK, will try the above tomorrow.

Except for mpere-mtjade, we saw bad nvme performance on ThunderX2® CN99XX too,
but I don't get one CN99XX system to check if the issue is same with
this one.
