This patch introduces the sysctl smcr_buf_type for setting the type of SMC-R sndbufs and RMBs. Valid values includes: - SMCR_PHYS_CONT_BUFS, which means use physically contiguous buffers for better performance and is the default value. - SMCR_VIRT_CONT_BUFS, which means use virtually contiguous buffers in case of physically contiguous memory is scarce. - SMCR_MIXED_BUFS, which means first try to use physically contiguous buffers. If not available, then use virtually contiguous buffers. Signed-off-by: Wen Gu <guwen@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

=============================
|
|
|
|
autocorking_size - INTEGER
|
|
Setting SMC auto corking size:
|
|
SMC auto corking is like TCP auto corking from the application's
|
|
perspective of view. When applications do consecutive small
|
|
write()/sendmsg() system calls, we try to coalesce these small writes
|
|
as much as possible, to lower total amount of CDC and RDMA Write been
|
|
sent.
|
|
autocorking_size limits the maximum corked bytes that can be sent to
|
|
the under device in 1 single sending. If set to 0, the SMC auto corking
|
|
is disabled.
|
|
Applications can still use TCP_CORK for optimal behavior when they
|
|
know how/when to uncork their sockets.
|
|
|
|
Default: 64K
|
|
|
|
smcr_buf_type - INTEGER
|
|
Controls which type of sndbufs and RMBs to use in later newly created
|
|
SMC-R link group. Only for SMC-R.
|
|
|
|
Default: 0 (physically contiguous sndbufs and RMBs)
|
|
|
|
Possible values:
|
|
|
|
- 0 - Use physically contiguous buffers
|
|
- 1 - Use virtually contiguous buffers
|
|
- 2 - Mixed use of the two types. Try physically contiguous buffers first.
|
|
If not available, use virtually contiguous buffers then.
