Subject: [PATCH 5/5] vhost: simplify some descriptor handling
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:02:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826140206.1099433-6-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826140206.1099433-1-david.marchand@redhat.com>

Now that the async datapath has been removed, move back the descriptors
copy/filling code in desc_to_mbuf/mbuf_to_desc and eliminate an
intermediate helper.

Tracking buf_iova is not needed in the descriptor to mbuf case.
