From: Suresh Jayaraman Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:02:09 +0000 (-0700) Subject: NFS: add support for splice writes X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~58^2~2^2~16 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bf40d3435caf49369058b1ed6bbc92f8e2bd92f1;p=pandora-kernel.git NFS: add support for splice writes Adds support for splice writes. It effectively calls generic_file_splice_write() to do the writes. We need not worry about O_APPEND case as the combination of splice() writes and O_APPEND is disallowed. This patch propagates NFS write errors back to the caller. The number of bytes written via splice are being added to NFSIO_NORMALWRITTENBYTES as these are effectively cached writes.
