[ Upstream commit 8ba3c9d1c6d75d1e6af2087278b30e17f68e1fff ] If there was any event available on the TCP socket, tcp_poll() will be called to retrieve all the events. In tcp_poll(), we call sk_stream_is_writeable() which returns true as long as we are at least one byte below notsent_lowat. This will result in quite a few spurious EPLLOUT and frequent tiny sendmsg() calls as a result. Similar to sk_stream_write_space(), use __sk_stream_is_writeable with a wake value of 1, so that we set EPOLLOUT only if half the space is available for write.

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.
