Subject: [PATCH next 3/3] iov: Optimise __import_iovec_ubuf()
Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2025 22:45:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250321224557.3847-4-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250321224557.3847-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
__import_iovec_ubuf() is used to read a single entry iovec[] into
the simpler 'ubuf' format.
Inline simplified bodies of copy_iovec_from_user() and
copy_compat_iovec_from_user() to avoid the overhead of the loop.
Signed-off-by: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>

I've left in the assignments to iov->iov_base and iov->iov_len
but they may not be needed.
