Annotated Snippet
What: tcp_dma_copybreak sysctl
Date: Removed in kernel v3.13
Contact: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
Description:
Formerly the lower limit, in bytes, of the size of socket reads
that will be offloaded to a DMA copy engine. Removed due to
coherency issues of the cpu potentially touching the buffers
while dma is in flight.
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
