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. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
