Would mind share the name of virtual machine monitor, the command line if
available, and which device to reproduce.

For instance, I am not able to reproduce with qemu nvme or virtio-blk as I
assume they use pci or virtio specific mapper to establish the mapping.

E.g., with qemu and nvme: -smp 8,sockets=1,cores=4,threads=2

Indeed I use three queues instead of twp as one is reserved for admin.

# ls /sys/block/nvme0n1/mq/*
/sys/block/nvme0n1/mq/0:
cpu0  cpu1  cpu2  cpu3  cpu_list  nr_reserved_tags  nr_tags

/sys/block/nvme0n1/mq/1:
cpu4  cpu5  cpu6  cpu7  cpu_list  nr_reserved_tags  nr_tags


Thank you very much!
