Network performance degradation with IBM s390x systems when TSO turned on
This document (7017226) is provided subject to the disclaimer at the end of this document.
Environment
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 Service Pack 1 (SLES 12 SP1)
Situation
Resolution
On a running system, one can use either
echo 32 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_min_tso_segsor
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs=32
To make the change permanent, either add line "net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs = 32" to /etc/sysctl.conf, or the preferred solution is to create a new file with ".conf" extension containing "net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs = 32" and put it in /etc/sysctl.d.
