Good point, but I think, that it is better to keep this check here, because access to 'fwd_cnt' and 'last_fwd_cnt' requires taking rx_lock - so I guess it is better to avoid taking this lock every time in 'virtio_transport_send_credit_update()'. So may be we can do something like: fwd_cnt_delta = vvs->fwd_cnt - vvs->last_fwd_cnt; free_space = vvs->buf_alloc - fwd_cnt_delta; and then, after lock is released: if (fwd_cnt_delta && (free_space < VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE || low_rx_bytes)) virtio_transport_send_credit_update(vsk); WDYT? Also, I guess that next idea to update this optimization(in next patchset), is to make threshold depends on vvs->buf_alloc. Because if someone changes minimum buffer size to for example 32KB, and then sets buffer size to 32KB, then free_space will be always non-zero, thus optimization is off now and credit update is sent on every read.

But does it make sense to allow a buffer smaller than VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE? Maybe we should fail in virtio_transport_notify_buffer_size() or use it as minimum. Stefano

Yes, currently there is no limitation in this transport callback - only for maximum. Thanks, Arseniy > > Stefano >

Add one more condition for sending credit update during dequeue from stream socket: when number of bytes in the rx queue is smaller than SO_RCVLOWAT value of the socket. This is actual for non-default value of SO_RCVLOWAT (e.g. not 1) - idea is to "kick" peer to continue data transmission, because we need at least SO_RCVLOWAT bytes in our rx queue to wake up user for reading data (in corner case it is also possible to stuck both tx and rx sides, this is why 'Fixes' is used).
