Subject: [PATCH v4 17/30] netfs: Add a function to extract from an iter into a bvecq
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2026 11:08:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616100821.2062304-18-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260616100821.2062304-1-dhowells@redhat.com>

Add a function to extract a slice of data from an iterator of any type into
a bvec queue chain.
