I recently set up btrfs raid 1 across 2x pcie4 for my boot drive and was disappointed in the read performance with encryption and compression (about 1 GBps read, 4 GBps write), so I was excited by the news of the performance increase in 6.0 and had to try the rc. I now get up to 4GBps read performance. On raid 0 on the same drives (no compression/encryption), I previously got around 2GBps read and now get 11GBps.

Ah, those good old days when Phoronix used to benchmark the various kernel versions...

I'm glad to see that this RC mentions IOMMU drivers. I immediately went on and confirmed that this fix is in: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/co...d611c5d2b9b56a
The issue caused me to lose HDMI/DP audio outputs on Fedora with 5.19.8 with an RX 6600 XT. Funnily enough, the regression report mentions it should be broken for all 5.19.x, but it works with 5.19.7
