OSDs and clients will attempt to use io_uring-based zero-copy TCP send
for buffers larger than this number of bytes. Zero-copy send with io_uring is
supported since Linux kernel version 6.1. Support is auto-detected and disabled
automatically when not available. It can also be disabled explicitly by setting
this parameter to a negative value.
⚠️ Warning! Zero-copy send performance may vary greatly from CPU to CPU and from
one kernel version to another. Generally, it tends to only make benefit with larger
messages. With smaller messages (say, 4 KB), it may actually be slower. 32 KB is
enough for almost all CPUs, but even smaller values are optimal for some of them.
For example, 4 KB is OK for EPYC Milan/Genoa and 12 KB is OK for Xeon Ice Lake
(but verify it yourself please).
Verification instructions:
1. Add `iommu=pt` into your Linux kernel command line and reboot.
2. Upgrade your kernel. For example, it's very important to use 6.11+ with recent AMD EPYCs.
3. Run some tests with the [send-zerocopy liburing example](https://github.com/axboe/liburing/blob/master/examples/send-zerocopy.c)
to find the minimal message size for which zero-copy is optimal.
Use `./send-zerocopy tcp -4 -R` at the server side and
`time ./send-zerocopy tcp -4 -b 0 -s BUFFER_SIZE -D SERVER_IP` at the client side with
`-z 0` (no zero-copy) and `-z 1` (zero-copy), and compare MB/s and used CPU time
(user+system).
