[Drbd-dev] [PATCH net-next v5 10/16] drbd: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather than sendpage()

Sat Jun 24 00:55:07 CEST 2023


Use sendmsg() conditionally with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES in _drbd_send_page()
rather than calling sendpage() or _drbd_no_send_page().

Notes:
    ver #4)
     - Don't look at msg.msg_iter after calling sendmsg.  There's no guarantee
       it has changed.
    
    ver #2)
     - Wrap lines at 80.
