Hello, I'm forwarding along a message sent to kernelnewbies as I was directed to address my question to this list. I am not a member of netdev, so please copy me on all discussion of this topic.
Cheers, Sam --- Greetings, I am a developer of the kernel AoE (ATA over Ethernet) driver. I am attempting to add dma offloading of data receive, following in TCP's footsteps via config option NET_DMA. There is a function in net/core/user_dma.c, dma_skb_copy_datagram_iovec, that appears to be exactly what I need, but this function is not EXPORTed for use by external modules. Since the NET_DMA option is documented as "Network: TCP receive copy offload" perhaps it's just an oversight that anyone else might benefit from it?
