net: qualcomm: rmnet: Set pacing shift
The real device over which the rmnet devices are installed also aggregate multiple IP packets and sends them as a single large aggregate frame to the hardware. This causes degraded throughput for TCP TX due to bufferbloat. To overcome this problem, pacing shift value of 8 is set using the sk_pacing_shift_update() helper. This value was determined based on experiments with a single stream TCP TX using iperf for a duration of 30s. Pacing shift | Observed data rate (Mbps) 10 | 9 9 | 140 8 | 146 (Max link rate) Signed-off-by: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
