5Description:
6 The driver will pad NCM Transfer Blocks (NTBs) longer
7 than this to tx_max, allowing the device to receive
8 tx_max sized frames with no terminating short
9 packet. NTBs shorter than this limit are transmitted
10 as-is, without any padding, and are terminated with a
11 short USB packet.
12
13 Padding to tx_max allows the driver to transmit NTBs
14 back-to-back without any interleaving short USB
15 packets. This reduces the number of short packet
16 interrupts in the device, and represents a tradeoff
17 between USB bus bandwidth and device DMA optimization.
18
19 Set to 0 to pad all frames. Set greater than tx_max to
20 disable all padding.

26Description:
27 The maximum NTB size for RX. Cannot exceed the
28 maximum value supported by the device. Must allow at
29 least one max sized datagram plus headers.
30
31 The actual limits are device dependent. See
32 dwNtbInMaxSize.
33
34 Note: Some devices will silently ignore changes to
35 this value, resulting in oversized NTBs and
36 corresponding framing errors.

55 Datagram aggregation timeout in µs. The driver will
56 wait up to 3 times this timeout for more datagrams to
