So, James, what is your opinion on the above? Or the overall SCSI target project simplicity doesn't matter much for you and you think it's fine to duplicate Linux page cache in the user space to keep the in-kernel part of the project as small as possible?


The answers were pretty much contained here

and here:

Weren't they?

No, sorry, it doesn't look so for me. They are about performance, but I'm asking about the overall project's architecture, namely about one part of it: simplicity. Particularly, what do you think about duplicating Linux page cache in the user space to have zero-copy cached I/O? Or can you suggest another architectural solution for that problem in the STGT's approach?
