The post_send() path determines if it should post directly or, schedule
the post for later. The current logic is:
if the swqe ring is empty or (for hfi1) wqe->length <= piothreshold
post the send
else
schedule
This can allow large requests to call the send engine directly. Large
requests can potentially produce a large number of packets prior to
returning to the caller, blocking the caller from posting more requests,
and allowing better parallel processing.
Allow the driver(s) more say in this logic (pass call_send to the driver,
rather than examining a return value).
Update hfi1/qib logic to schedule the send engine if an RC or UC message
is larger than the QP MTU size.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
