To make the above cleaner, I would use an enum to define the vector
indexes:

enum {
	VECTOR_TRACE_ID,
	VECTOR_FLAGS,
	VECTOR_COUNT,
	VECTOR_TIMES,
	VECTOR_OFFSETS,
	VECTOR_SCALINGS,
}

And then you can make it:

	vector[VECTOR_TRACE_ID].iov_len = 8;
	vector[VECTOR_TRACE_ID].iov_base = &top_instance.trace_id;
	vector[VECTOR_FLAGS].iov_len = 4;
	vector[VECTOR_FLAGS].iov_base = &flags;
	vector[VECTOR_COUNT].iov_len = 4;
	vector[VECTOR_COUNT].iov_base = &count;
	vector[VECTOR_TIMES].iov_len = 8 * count;
	vector[VECTOR_TIMES].iov_base = ts;
	vector[VECTOR_OFFSETS].iov_len = 8 * count;
	vector[VECTOR_OFFSETS].iov_base = offsets;
	vector[VECTOR_SCALINGS].iov_len = 8 * count;
	vector[VECTOR_SCALINGS].iov_base = scalings;

It makes it obvious what each vector is used for.

This is just an opinion. You don't need to implement it. I just hate
hard coded numbers ;-)
