Abstract
The disclosed technologies provide functionality for collecting quality of service (“QoS”) statistics for in-use child physical functions of multiple physical function (“PF”) non-volatile memory devices (“MFNDs”). A host computing device creates a child PF on a MFND and configures the child PF on the MFND to provide a specified QoS level to an associated VM executing on the host computing device. The MFND then collects child PF QoS statistics for the child PF that describe the utilization of resources provided by child PF to an assigned VM. The MFND provides the child PF QoS statistics from the MFND to the host computing device. The collected child PF QoS statistics can be utilized to inform decisions regarding reallocation of MFND-provided resources, provisioning of new MFND-provided resources, and for other purposes.
