Hello, kernel_sendmsg fails with error EAGAIN, yet I no matter how long I try, I still get the same error and do not see the send buffer size of a socket changing (increasing) The initial buffer sizes are 16384 for send side and 87380 for the receive side but I see receive side buffer tuning but do not see the same with send side. If tcp does not see a need to increase the send buffer size, wonder why I get EAGAIN error on this non-blocking socket for kernel_sendmsg! I do subscribe to this mailing list so, please send your responses to this mail address.

The send buffer size remains fixed, the auto-tuning for send side is enabled by default,so I do not see it happening here no matter how long the c ode tries to kernel_sendmsg after receiving EAGAIN return code. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
