+autocorking_size - INTEGER
+ Setting SMC auto corking size:
+ SMC auto corking is like TCP auto corking from the application's
+ perspective of view. When applications do consecutive small
+ write()/sendmsg() system calls, we try to coalesce these small writes
+ as much as possible, to lower total amount of CDC and RDMA Write been
+ sent.
+ autocorking_size limits the maximum corked bytes that can be sent to
+ the under device in 1 single sending. If set to 0, the SMC auto corking
+ is disabled.
+ Applications can still use TCP_CORK for optimal behavior when they
+ know how/when to uncork their sockets.
+
+ Default: 64K
