It met with some harsh resistance, so I backed off on it. Then Al Viro got busy re-writing the iov_iter infrastructure and I put my patchset on the shelf to look at later. Then Ming Lei submitted more up-to-date patchset: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/6/175 It looks like Ming is currently only pushing the first half of that patchset. I don't know what his plans are for the last three patches: aio: add aio_kernel_() interface fd/direct-io: introduce should_dirty for kernel aio block: loop: support to submit I/O via kernel aio based Dave -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
