Doc Text:
.User can now take advantage of a tunable KernelDevice buffer in BlueStore With this release, users can now configure custom alignment for read buffers using `bdev_read_buffer_alignment` command in BlueStore. This removes the limitations imposed by the default 4 KiB alignment space, when buffers are intended to be backed up by huge pages. Additionally, BlueStore, through KernelDevice, gets a configurable pool with `bdev_read_preallocated_huge_buffer_num` parameter of MAP_HUGETLB-based read buffers for workloads with cache-unfriendly access patterns, which undergo recycling and are not cacheable. Taken together, these features allow to shorten a scatter-gather list that is passed by the storage component to NICs, thereby improving the handling of huge page-based read buffers in BlueStore.
