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.
