Abstract
A metadata processing method includes a network interface card in a storage device that receives an input/output (I/O) request, where the I/O request includes a data read request or a data write request; the network interface card executes a metadata processing task corresponding to the I/O request; and when determining that the metadata processing task fails to be executed, the network interface card requests a CPU in the storage device to execute the metadata processing task.
