Subject: vfs_splice_read()?
Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2007 23:39:43 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1ICz4Z-0000rU-PD@jroun> (raw)
Hello list,
I am developing a filesystem which supports f_op->sendfile.
Recently I noticed, in -git tree, ->sendfile is removed and it should be
replaced by ->splice_read.
If VFS helper for splice_read, like vfs_read(), existed, it had to be
very helpful.
There already exists a static function called do_splice_to() and I'd
like to suggest to rename it to vfs_splice_read() and make it global,
EXPORT_SYMBOL.
If fsdevel members agree with that, I will send a small patch for it.
