Here's a second patchset for mmotm, based on 30-rc2 plus the 14 in mm tmpfs and trunc changes, which were preparation for this. Add shmem_file_splice_read(), remove shmem_readpage(), and simplify: before advancing to the interesting radix_tree conversion in the final patchset, to follow in a few days. 1/7 tmpfs: clone shmem_file_splice_read 2/7 tmpfs: refine shmem_file_splice_read 3/7 tmpfs: pass gfp to shmem_getpage_gfp 4/7 tmpfs: remove shmem_readpage 5/7 tmpfs: simplify prealloc_page 6/7 tmpfs: simplify filepage/swappage 7/7 tmpfs: simplify unuse and writepage fs/splice.c | 4 include/linux/splice.h | 2 mm/shmem.c | 549 ++++++++++++++++++++------------------- 3 files changed, 299 insertions(+), 256 deletions(-) Hugh -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxx For more info on Linux MM, see: http://www.linux-mm.org/ .
