Although I haven't seen any performance results that justify it, I've received several complaints that NFS/RDMA no longer supports a maximum rsize and wsize of 1MB. These days it is somewhat smaller. To simplify the logic that determines whether a chunk list is necessary, the implementation uses a fixed maximum size of the transport header. Currently that maximum size is 256 bytes, one quarter of the default inline threshold size for RPC/RDMA v1. Since commit a7886849 ("xprtrdma: Reduce max_frwr_depth"), the size of chunks is also smaller to take advantage of inline page lists in device internal MR data structures. The combination of these two design choices has reduced the maximum NFS rsize and wsize that can be used for most RNIC/HCAs. Increasing the maximum transport header size and the maximum number of RDMA segments it can contain increases the negotiated maximum rsize/wsize on common RNIC/HCAs.
