From fc8162e3c034af743d8def435fda6396603d321f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Grover Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 15:40:58 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] RDS: Copy rds_iovecs into kernel memory instead of rereading from userspace Change rds_rdma_pages to take a passed-in rds_iovec array instead of doing copy_from_user itself. Change rds_cmsg_rdma_args to copy rds_iovec array once only. This eliminates the possibility of userspace changing it after our sanity checks. Implement stack-based storage for small numbers of iovecs, based on net/socket.c, to save an alloc in the extremely common case. Although this patch reduces iovec copies in cmsg_rdma_args to 1, we still do another one in rds_rdma_extra_size. Getting rid of that one will be trickier, so it'll be a separate patch.
