splice simplification

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

 



Hi all,

this series (which is on top of the previews readv/writev patches) cleans
up the splice read/write support a bit.  The first patch implicitly uses
the iov_iter based implementations unless explcitiy splice read/write
methods are set.  This removes a lot of churn, and wires up proper splice
for many file systems that implement read_iter / write_iter but didn't
bother to wire up the splice methods.  The second patch then removes
the old default splice fallback methods as everything that matters now
uses explicit methods or the iov_iter based implementations.  The last
once marks vfs_readv and vfs_writev static as they are internal helpers
for fs/read_write.c now.
