[RFC PATCH 2/6] virtio/console: Add a failback for unstealable pipe buffer

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

 



From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a failback memcpy path for unstealable pipe buffer.
If buf->ops->steal() fails, virtio-serial tries to
copy the page contents to an allocated page, instead
of just failing splice().
