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
