Hey Linus,
/* Summary */
This contains Jens' work to support FMODE_NOWAIT and thus IOCB_NOWAIT
for pipes ensuring that all places can deal with non-blocking requests.
To this end, pass down the information that this is a nonblocking
request so that pipe locking, allocation, and buffer checking correctly
deal with those.
The series is small but it felt standalone enough that I didn't want to
lump it together with other, generic vfs work.
/* Testing */
clang: Ubuntu clang version 15.0.6
gcc: (Ubuntu 12.2.0-3ubuntu1) 12.2.0
All patches are based on 6.3-rc2 and have been sitting in linux-next.
No build failures or warnings were observed. All old and new tests in
fstests, selftests, and LTP pass without regressions.
/* Conflicts */
At the time of creating this PR no merge conflicts were reported from
linux-next and no merge conflicts showed up doing a test-merge with
current mainline.
The following changes since commit eeac8ede17557680855031c6f305ece2378af326:
