The proposed patch set is the linux client AND linux server. We need removal of the VFS cross-device check on both side (client and destination server) to make the server-to-server copy work. On the server side, we also call vfs_copy_file_range() that (when check is removed) ends up reading from the NFS source file and writing to the local file system. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
