No, a PDU is sent every time the buffered data achieves the size of the
channel MTU, then skb_more starts to buffer the next pdu to be sent.
A send with the MSG_MORE flag unset would tell to send everything that is
queued.

It get sent right away. Also I don't think the application needs to know such
kind of information. It deliveries the data to the kernel and the kernel
decides when to send the data.

You are reading it wrong. This checks if the buffered achieve the OMTU size,
if yes we break and send the data. Later l2cap_create_basic_pdu() is called to
deal with the remaining data.

This make the logic much more simple, otherwise extra checks will be needed in
l2cap_chan_send()

Yes.

No, that is the continuation of what I send above, if we call
l2cap_append_pdu(), completely fill a pdu and send it we would new a call to
l2cap_create_basic_pdu() if there is more data to queue (len > 0)

Yes.

If the queued data equals the omtu then we send it.

I think so.
