s3:smbd: force multi-channel to be turned off without FreeBSD/Linux support
For now it's safer to disable multi-channel without having support for TIOCOUTQ/FIONWRITE on tcp sockets. Using a fixed retransmission timeout (rto) of 1 second would be ok, but we better require kernel support for requesting for unacked bytes in the kernel send queue. "force:server multi channel support = yes" can be used to overwrite the compile time restriction (mainly for testing). BUG: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11897 Signed-off-by: Stefan Metzmacher <metze@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Günther Deschner <gd@samba.org>
