[RFC PATCH 27/28] sunrpc: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather then sendpage

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

 



When transmitting data, call down into TCP using a single sendmsg with
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to indicate that content should be spliced rather than
performing several sendmsg and sendpage calls to transmit header, data
pages and trailer.

To make this work, the data is assembled in a bio_vec array and attached to
a BVEC-type iterator.  The bio_vec array has two extra slots before the
first for headers and one after the last for a trailer.  The headers and
trailer are copied into memory acquired from zcopy_alloc() which just
breaks a page up into small pieces that can be freed with put_page().
