Blamed commit only dealt with applications issuing small writes. Issue here is that we allow to force memory schedule for the sk_buff allocation, but we have no guarantee that sendmsg() is able to copy some payload in it. In this patch, I make sure the socket can use up to tcp_wmem[0] bytes. For example, if we consider tcp_wmem[0] = 4096 (default on x86), and initial skb->truesize being 1280, tcp_sendmsg() is able to copy up to 2816 bytes under memory pressure. Before this patch a sendmsg() sending more than 2816 bytes would either block forever (if persistent memory pressure), or return -EAGAIN. For bigger MTU networks, it is advised to increase tcp_wmem[0] to avoid sending too small packets. v2: deal with zero copy paths.
