Erlang的每个TCP网络链接是由相应的gen_tcp对象来表示的，说白了就是个port, 实现Erlang网络相关的逻辑，其实现代码位于erts/emulator/drivers/common/inet_drv.c
参照inet:setopts文档，它有三个buffer相关的选项，非常让人费解：
{buffer, Size}
Determines the size of the user-level software buffer used by the driver. Not to be confused with sndbuf and recbuf options which correspond to the kernel socket buffers. It is recommended to have val(buffer) >= max(val(sndbuf),val(recbuf)). In fact, the val(buffer) is automatically set to the above maximum when sndbuf or recbuf values are set.{recbuf, Size}
Gives the size of the receive buffer to use for the socket.{sndbuf, Size}
Gives the size of the send buffer to use for the socket.
其中sndbuf, recbuf选项比较好理解， 就是设置gen_tcp所拥有的socket句柄的内核的发送和接收缓冲区，从代码可以验证：
/* inet_drv.c */
#define INET_OPT_SNDBUF 6 /* set send buffer size */
#define INET_OPT_RCVBUF 7 /* set receive buffer size */
static int inet_set_opts(inet_descriptor* desc, char* ptr, int len)
{
...
case INET_OPT_SNDBUF: type = SO_SNDBUF;
DEBUGF(("inet_set_opts(%ld): s=%d, SO_SNDBUF=%d\r\n",
(long)desc->port, desc->s, ival));
break;
case INET_OPT_RCVBUF: type = SO_RCVBUF;
DEBUGF(("inet_set_opts(%ld): s=%d, SO_RCVBUF=%d\r\n",
(long)desc->port, desc->s, ival));
break;
...
res = sock_setopt (desc->s, proto, type, arg_ptr, arg_sz);
...
}
那buffer是什么呢，他们三者之间的关系？ 从文档的描述来看：
It is recommended to have val(buffer) >= max(val(sndbuf),val(recbuf)). In fact, the val(buffer) is automatically set to the above maximum when sndbuf or recbuf values are set.
