So to merge the core support all users including nfs need to be updated. the last wip patchset is posted in the at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114177713027505&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114177739515518&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114177739313588&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114177739407636&w=2 any nfs work should happen ontop of that. I'm sill the opinion removing the iovec arguments isn't helpfull, but it's your code and if you think it helps you move forwarg go ahead with this. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
