[PATCH v7 0/5] Add preadv & pwritev system calls.

[PATCH v7 0/5] Add preadv & pwritev system calls.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

  Hi folks,

Next round of the preadv & pwritev patch series.  The whitespace bugs
should finally be gone now, checkpatch has nothing to complain about.

There is now a git tree with the patches (branch 'preadv'):
  git://git.et.redhat.com/kernel-kraxel.git
  http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=kernel-kraxel.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/preadv

Plan it so get this into the linux-next once it comes back to life (after
LCA?).

As for userspace bits someone asked for:

Qemu wants use that to handle virtual disk I/O.  A patch for qemu can be
found here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/36851
The code can't put into use yet though as the qemu block layer needs
some changes to pass though iovecs to the disk image format driver code.

Note this isn't the first attempt to get preadv support into the kernel,
therefore I expect others (databases?) will quickly use that too.

Also *BSD has this syscall for quite some time, thus there likely is
code using this in the wild already ...

cheers,
  Gerd

[PATCH v7 2/5] create compat_writev()

[Gerd Hoffmann]

Factor out some code from compat_sys_writev() which can be shared with the
upcoming compat_sys_pwritev().

[PATCH v7 3/5] Add preadv and pwritev system calls.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

This patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls.  These syscalls are a
pretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write).
They are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications.
Using lseek+readv instead opens race windows you'll have to plug with
locking.

Other systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check
here: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html

The application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like
this to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family:

  ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);
  ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);

This prototype has one problem though:  On 32bit archs is the (64bit)
offset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs
doesn't allow to do.  At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle
this.  As we'll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I've decided to push
problem to glibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works
without arch-specific wrappers inside the kernel:  The offset argument
is explicitly splitted into two 32bit values.

The patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in
the x86 system call tables.  Other archs follow as separate patches.

I earlier asked if you could provide some userspace example code using
this API.  If there was a response, I missed it.  Could you please
provide some working test using this interface.
