[PATCH Version-2 03/12] VFS permit cross device vfs_copy_file_range

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

 



From: Andy Adamson <andros@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

NFSv4.2 inter server to server copy always copies across devices.

Note: both btrfs and nfs have EXDEV checks in their
copy_file_range functions.
