Hello,

Just want to confirm that the following are the only kernel functions that
are called to write to files(VFS):

- do_sync_write
- vfs_write (calls do_sync_write)
- sys_write (calls vfs_write)
- sys_pwrite64 (calls vfs_write)
- vfs_writev
- sys_writev
- do_readv_writev

Basically, I want to find out the all kernel functions thru which every
write call (not FS dependant) passes.

Disclaimer: I am newbie.


Thanks,

Siddhartha
