[PATCH v11 42/48] sunrpc: Allow to demand-allocate pages to encode into

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When encoding large, variable-length objects such as acls into xdr_bufs,
it is easier to allocate buffer pages on demand rather than precomputing
the required buffer size.
