Rdma write with inline flag when sending small packages, whose length is shorter than the qp's max_inline_data, can help reducing latency. 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 0.5us-0.7us improvement in latency. Test command: server: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf client: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf <server ip> -oo \ msg_size:1:2K:*2 -t 30 -vu tcp_lat The results shown below: msgsize before after 1B 11.2 us 10.6 us (-0.6 us) 2B 11.2 us 10.7 us (-0.5 us) 4B 11.3 us 10.7 us (-0.6 us) 8B 11.2 us 10.6 us (-0.6 us) 16B 11.3 us 10.7 us (-0.6 us) 32B 11.3 us 10.6 us (-0.7 us) 64B 11.2 us 11.2 us (0 us) 128B 11.2 us 11.2 us (0 us) 256B 11.2 us 11.2 us (0 us) 512B 11.4 us 11.3 us (-0.1 us) 1KB 11.4 us 11.5 us (0.1 us) 2KB 11.5 us 11.5 us (0 us) Signed-off-by: Guangguan Wang <guangguan.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Reviewed-by: Tony Lu <tonylu@linux.alibaba.com> Tested-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Acked-by: Karsten Graul <kgraul@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
