    net/dim: Support adaptive TX moderation · 623ad755

    Interrupt moderation for TX traffic requires different profiles than RX
    interrupt moderation. The main goal here is to reduce interrupt rate and
    allow better payload aggregation by keeping SKBs in the TX queue a bit
    longer. Ping-pong behavior would get a profile with a short timer, so
    latency wouldn't increase for these scenarios. There might be a slight
    degradation in bandwidth for single stream with large message sizes, since
    net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes is limiting the allowed TX traffic, but
    with many streams performance is always improved.
