Guangguan Wang says: ==================== net/smc: send and write inline optimization for smc Send cdc msgs and write data inline if qp has sufficent inline space, helps latency reducing. In my test environment, which are 2 VMs running on the same physical host and whose NICs(ConnectX-4Lx) are working on SR-IOV mode, qperf shows 0.4us-1.3us improvement in latency.

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.
