got the following warning after a kernel update on Thurstday, leading to a

sure it was the same. It's reproducible but I didn't bisect since it
borked my fs. The only hint I can give is that v6.18 worked. Is this a
known issue? Anything I should try?

Could you check if your nvme device supports SGLs? There are some new
features in 6.19 that would allow merging IO that wouldn't have happened
before. You can check from command line:

# nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 | grep sgl

# nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0n1 | grep sgl
sgls : 0xf0002

Thanks,
