Hi,
I am trying to increase the buffer size in tx.
According to https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_transport.html, 
 it seems that we can change the default send_buff_size by specifying value in 
device arguments. I tried the following configuration: 
uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make('addr=192.168.12.2, second_addr=192.168.13.2, 
mgmt_addr=192.168.10.16, master_clock_rate=245.76e6, type=n3xx, 
send_buff_size=33554432')

But this didn't have any impact. I measured that the actual buffer is always 
about ~1MB.
Then in UHD library, I find the following limit:
static const size_t MAX_BUFF_SIZE_ETH_MACOS = 0x100000; // 1Mib
    if (link_params.send_buff_size > MAX_BUFF_SIZE_ETH_MACOS) {        
link_params.send_buff_size = MAX_BUFF_SIZE_ETH_MACOS;    }
33554432 > 1048576 (1Mib), so this may be why the above config didn't work. 
Then I tried the following configuration:
uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make('addr=192.168.12.2,second_addr=192.168.13.2,mgmt_addr=192.168.10.16,master_clock_rate=245.76e6,type=n3xx,send_buff_size=524288')

This one didn't have any impact either.So, am I wrong in configuring 
send_buff_size in this way? what is the correct way?
1M buffer size is too small for my application. I am using sampling rate 
245.76MHz. This buffer can only save data up to 0.5ms. I want to allocate a 
bigger buffer to achieve better reliability.
Thanks for any comment.
