Since we are not going to be able to talk about this at LSF/MM, a few of
us thought about holding a dedicated virtual discussion about Copy
Offload. I believe we can use Chaitanya's thread as a start. Given the
current state of the current patches, I would propose that we focus on
the next step to get the minimal patchset that can go upstream so that
we can build from there.
Before we try to find a date and a time that fits most of us, who would
be interested in participating?
Given the technical complexity of this topic and also that the people who are
interested live in multiple time zones, I prefer email to discuss the technical
aspects of this work. My attempt to summarize how to implement copy offloading
is available here: https://protect2.fireeye.com/v1/url?k=ba7e5d9a-e5e564d5-ba7fd6d5-0cc47a30d446-07a47f3f53cbfe53&q=1&e=c3973bdc-b6fd-43fb-80e6-0c86cb6b4d5f&u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fbvanassche%2Flinux-kernel-copy-offload.
Feedback on this text is welcome.
Thanks for sharing this Bart.
I agree that the topic is complex. However, we have not been able to
find a clear path forward in the mailing list.
What do you think about joining the call to talk very specific next
steps to get a patchset that we can start reviewing in detail.
I think that your presence in the call will help us all.
What do you think?
