A virtual channel buffer bypass in a computer system input/output node. A control unit of an input/output node for a computer system includes a buffer circuit configured to receive control commands. The buffer circuit may include a plurality of buffers each corresponding to a respective virtual channel of a plurality of virtual channels for storing selected control commands that belong to the respective virtual channel. The buffer circuit may also be configured to determine whether each of the plurality of buffers is empty prior to storing a particular control command corresponding to a given one of the plurality of buffers. In addition, the buffer circuit may be configured to cause the particular control command to bypass the given one of the plurality of buffers in response to determining that each of the plurality of buffers is empty.
