You have to be careful about when you set them. The old nfs code does it in the wrong place, just before the first read. That's too late. You have to do it just after accept(). Does the kernel ever shrink these buffers? Not now, but it could in the future. Yet another reason this should be an actual socket (or tcp) call with well defined semantics. By the way, I'm pretty sure you never have to set sk_sndbuf, as the tcp code will grow the send buffer as needed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
