Method and apparatus to enable individual non volatile memory express (NVMe) input/output (IO) queues on differing network addresses of an NVMe controller

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus related to enabling individual NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory express) IO (Input Output or I/O) queues on differing network addresses of an NVMe controller are described. In one embodiment, a plurality of backend controller logic is coupled to a plurality of non-volatile memory devices. One or more virtual controller target logic (coupled to the plurality of backend controller logic) transmit data from a first portion of a plurality of IO queues to a first backend controller logic of the plurality of the backend controller logic. The one or more virtual controller target logic transmit data from a second portion of the plurality of IO queues to a second backend controller logic of the plurality of backend controller logic. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
