Hardware queues are a fast staging area to push commands into the adapter. The adapter should drain them extremely quickly. However, under heavy io load, the host cpu is pushing commands faster than the drain rate of the adapter causing the driver to resource busy commands. Enlarge the hardware queue (wq & cq) to support a larger number of queue entries (4x the prior size) before backpressure. Enlarging the queue requires larger contiguous buffers (16k) per logical page for the hardware. This changed calling sequences that were expecting 4K page sizes that now must pass a parameter with the page sizes. It also required use of a new version of an adapter command that can vary the page size values.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
