This series adds two new helpers to easily read from and write to arbitrary iov_iter structures and switches the loop driver and target file backend to use those with bio_vecs. Using bio_vecs directly avoids the need to kmap individual elements in the callers, which is epecially important in the target driver, and also gets rid of the horrible splice code abuse hack in the loop driver. Changes since V1: - rebase ontop of viro/for-next - changed the helpers to read/write any iov_iter, and use iov_iter_bvec to build those - return -EINVAL if ->read_iter/->write_iter aren't present instead of -EBADFD - use kcalloc in the target patch - add a patch to rewrite the target WRITE SAME emulation -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
