            Bug ID: 208798
           Summary: [iscsi] MaxRecvDataSegmentLength and sockbufsize
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: ben.rubson@gmail.com

Hello,

I would like to increase PDU size / DataSegmentLength in order to increase
iSCSI throughput over a high latency Ethernet link (several ms).
I then tuned the 2 following parameters in /etc/iscsi.conf :
MaxRecvDataSegmentLength=3D2097152
sockbufsize=3D2048

However, iscsictl simply returns the following for them : obsolete statement
ignored.
iscsictl -v confirms with a DataSegmentLen stuck at 131072.
Below this message is the demonstration.

Could we think about supporting these 2 parameters in order to increase the=
 PDU
size please ?

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Ben



# man iscsi.conf
MaxRecvDataSegmentLength
    the maximum data segment length in bytes it can receive
    in an iSCSI PDU, default is 8192.
sockbufsize
    sets the receiver and transmitter socket buffer size to
    size, in kilobytes.  The default is 128.

# cat /etc/iscsi.conf=20
t0 {
        TargetAddress =3D 192.168.2.3
        TargetName =3D iqn.2012-06.com.example:target0
        MaxRecvDataSegmentLength =3D 2097152
        sockbufsize =3D 2048
}
