The nvme request generation counter is intended to catch duplicate completions. Incrementing the counter on submission means duplicates can only be caught if the request tag is reallocated and dispatched prior to the driver observing the corrupted CQE. Incrementing on completion removes this window, making it possible to detect duplicate completions in consecutive entries.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
