Eric Dumazet 98e09386c0 tcp: tsq: restore minimal amount of queueing ... After commit c9eeec26e3 ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi adapters. 802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective. This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit() so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes. It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway. Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq), can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from 128KB to 8KB. This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set to a minimum of 4KB. Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible, but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.
