Subject: [linux-next:master] [tcp]  8ee602c635:
 lmbench3.TCP.socket.bandwidth.10MB.MB/sec -21.8% regression



Hello,

kernel test robot noticed a -21.8% regression of lmbench3.TCP.socket.bandwidth.10MB.MB/sec on:


commit: 8ee602c635206ed012f979370094015857c02359 ("tcp: try to send bigger TSO packets")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

[still regression on linux-next/master bb7a2467e6beef44a80a17d45ebf2931e7631083]


testcase: lmbench3
test machine: 48 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2697 v2 @ 2.70GHz (Ivy Bridge-EP) with 64G memory
parameters:

	test_memory_size: 50%
	nr_threads: 100%
	mode: development
	test: TCP
	cpufreq_governor: performance




If you fix the issue in a separate patch/commit (i.e. not just a new version of
the same patch/commit), kindly add following tags
