Currently, SMC uses smc->sk.sk_{rcv|snd}buf to create buffers for send buffer and RMB. And the values of buffer size are from tcp_{w|r}mem in clcsock. The buffer size from TCP socket doesn't fit SMC well. Generally, buffers are usually larger than TCP for SMC-R/-D to get higher performance, for they are different underlay devices and paths. So this patch unbinds buffer size from TCP, and introduces two sysctl knobs to tune them independently. Also, these knobs are per net namespace and work for containers.

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.
