[PATCH V3 0/7] ublk: cleanup and support user copy

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

 



Hello,

The 1st 3 patch are cleanup.

The other patches support to move data copy between io request pages and
userspace buffer into ublk server(userspace). This way avoids one round trip
of uring command(UBLK_F_NEED_GET_DATA), and solve buffer release issue for
READ[1]. Meantime both sides becomes cleaner. Also it can be thought as
prep patch for supporting zero copy.
