Subject: [RFC] get_compat_msghdr(): get rid of field-by-field copyin
Date: Sat, 8 Jul 2017 19:21:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170708182100.GR10672@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)
There are 3 commits in vfs.git#misc.compat I hadn't pushed to Linus yet;
they touch net/* and I'd like to see at least "no objections" from networking
folks before asking to pull that; all of those are about getting rid of
field-by-field copyin. Please, review and comment.
