Based on some research some products might experience an occasional IO failures in the communication between CPU and SSD because of NCQ.
There seems to be a problem between some kernel versions and some SATA controllers.
Syslog error message examples:
Error "ata1: SError: { UnrecovData Handshk }" - "failed command: WRITE FPDMA QUEUED".
Error "ata1: SError: { RecovComm HostInt PHYRdyChg CommWake 10B8B DevExch }" - "failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED".
Some vendors already disabled NCQ on their platforms in SONiC due to similar issue:
[Arista] Disable ATA NCQ for a few products #13739 [Arista] Disable ATA NCQ for a few products
[Arista] Disable SSD NCQ on DCS-7050CX3-32S #13964 [Arista] Disable SSD NCQ on DCS-7050CX3-32S
Also there are other discussions on Debian/Ubuntu forums about similar issues and it was suggested to disable NCQ:

#### Why I did it
When a kernel crash occurs, the system will reboot to the kdump capture kernel if kdump is enabled (`config kdump enable`). In the kdump capture boot, it only stores the crash information, and then reboot the system to a normal boot.
In this boot, no SONiC service is started but it invokes `reboot` which is actually the SONiC reboot that depends on SONiC services. There is a logic to skip all SONiC stuff and invoke platform reboot in SONiC reboot to avoid issues.
However, on Nvidia platforms, the platform reboot still depends on SONiC services, which can cause issues.
So, the Debian reboot is called directly in platform reboot if it is invoked from the kdump capture boot.

Support DSCP remapping in dual ToR topo on T0 switch for SKU Mellanox-SN4600c-C64, Mellanox-SN4600c-D48C40, Mellanox-SN2700, Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8.
- How I did it
Regarding buffer settings, originally, there are two lossless PGs and queues 3, 4. In dual ToR scenario, the lossless traffic from the leaf switch to the uplink of the ToR switch can be bounced back.
To avoid PFC deadlock, we need to map the bounce-back lossless traffic to different PGs and queues. Therefore, 2 additional lossless PGs and queues are allocated on uplink ports on ToR switches.
On uplink ports, map DSCP 2/6 to TC 2/6 respectively
On downlink ports, both DSCP 2/6 are still mapped to TC 1
Buffer adjusted according to the ports information:
Mellanox-SN4600c-C64:
56 downlinks 50G + 8 uplinks 100G
Mellanox-SN4600c-D48C40, Mellanox-SN2700, Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8:

Support additional queue and PG in buffer templates, including both traditional and dynamic model
Support mapping DSCP 2/6 to lossless traffic in the QoS template.
Add macros to generate additional lossless PG in the dynamic model
Adjust the order in which the generic/dedicated (with additional lossless queues) macros are checked and called to generate buffer tables in common template buffers_config.j2
Buffer tables are rendered via using macros.
Both generic and dedicated macros are defined on our platform. Currently, the generic one is called as long as it is defined, which causes the generic one always being called on our platform. To avoid it, the dedicated macrio is checked and called first and then the generic ones.
Support MAP_PFC_PRIORITY_TO_PRIORITY_GROUP on ports with additional lossless queues.
