libceph: use MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST with ceph_tcp_sendpage() Prevent do_tcp_sendpages() from calling tcp_push() (at least) once per page. Instead, arrange for tcp_push() to be called (at least) once per data payload. This results in more MSS-sized packets and fewer packets overall (5-10% reduction in my tests with typical OSD request sizes). See commits 2f5338442425 ("tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets"), 35f9c09fe9c7 ("tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once") and ae62ca7b0321 ("tcp: fix MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST logic") for details. Here is an example of a packet size histogram for 128K OSD requests (MSS = 1448, top 5): Before: SIZE COUNT 1448 777700 952 127915 1200 39238 1219 9806 21 5675 After: SIZE COUNT 1448 897280 21 6201 1019 2797 643 2739 376 2479 We could do slightly better by explicitly corking the socket but it's not clear it's worth it.
