The patch titled Subject: vmcore: convert __read_vmcore to use an iov_iter has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is vmcore-convert-__read_vmcore-to-use-an-iov_iter.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/vmcore-convert-__read_vmcore-to-use-an-iov_iter.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/vmcore-convert-__read_vmcore-to-use-an-iov_iter.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: vmcore: convert __read_vmcore to use an iov_iter This gets rid of copy_to() and let us use proc_read_iter() instead of proc_read().
