关于两个SSD之间P2P传输问题

不好意思用中文描述,但是我觉得中文描述会清晰些吧。

我想买两个SSD做P2P实验,但是我遇到了问题如下:

1)SSD选型。

        我得知P4600(PCIE接口,NVME协议)在其他论坛有用来做P2P实验,但是我很疑惑,从Intel官网里边所有的SSD产品特性,都没提及产品特性有支持CMB的功能(P2P需要SSD支持CMB)。P4500(U.2接口)这个是支持NVME协议,但是它并不支持CMB(通过指令nvme show-regs来查看),那P4600支持吗,或者有什么其他产品支持CMB功能吗?

        另外一个帖子做的P2P实验:https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/Performance-of-P2P-DMA-PCIe-packets-routed-by-CPU/m-p/5200...

2)Kernel版本

        我查看Kernel的提交记录,看见4.20版本才会支持CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA,我的理解是4.20以上的版本,Root complexes才会支持P2P?

3)cmb_copy与CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA之间的关系

        cmb_copy的作用里边,描述了它很多地方做了驱动事情,Kernel的CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA不就是驱动为了支持P2P吗,那这两者之间是不是有啥关系呢?

4)这个产品国内还有的吧?

Hello, @maybe0524.

Thank you for contacting the Intel Community Support.

Please keep in mind that support in the community is provided in English only and the use of a translator will be required.

We have been reviewing your questions regarding the Intel SSD P4600 and P2P tests, I will be glad to assist you.

For your first question, I can try to look for more information, please allow me to investigate and I will contact you back as soon as possible.

Regarding your second and third questions, the best option would be to contact the community forums of the utility and/or OS distribution being used in order to get more details as these questions are not SSD related/dependent.

About SSD availability, the best option is to contact a distributor close to your location in order to get accurate information regarding inventory availability and pricing, you can use the following link as reference:

Hello, @maybe0524.

Thank you very much for waiting.

Regarding your first question, the SSD P4600 does not support CMB, the only drive we have with this feature is the Intel® Optane™ SSD DC D4800X Series with the difference that this is a dual-port drive. There are plans to support it in upcoming products, but currently keep in mind the D4800X is not a single port but a dual-port SSD.

For the rest of your questions, the answer is still the same, so no changes there.

If there is anything else, please let me know.

Best regards,

Hello, @maybe0524.

I wanted to follow up on your community thread in case you had any other questions.

Hello, @maybe0524.

This message is to follow up on your community thread regarding CMB support and SSD availability.

I previously shared that only the Intel SSD DC D4800X provides this functionally, availability/stock/pricing information needs to be asked to a distributor and also that your other questions need to be directed to the OS/Tool developer.

The thread will be closed right now, please open a new one if you need further assistance as this thread will no longer be monitored; you may also contact us via one of the other support methods (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/contact-support.html).

If you require any type of assistance from Intel in the future, you can always contact us back.
