We currently allow only one read per compound, with operations before and after whose responses will require no more than about a page to encode. While we don't expect clients to violate those limits any time soon, this limitation isn't really condoned by the spec, so to future proof the server we should lift the limitation. At the same time we'd like to continue to support zero-copy reads. Supporting multiple zero-copy-reads per compound would require a new data structure to replace struct xdr_buf, which can represent only one set of included pages. So for now we plan to modify encode_read() to support either zero-copy or non-zero-copy reads, and use some heuristics at the start of the compound processing to decide whether a zero-copy read will work. This will allow us to support more exotic compounds without introducing a performance regression in the normal case. Later patches handle those "exotic compounds", this one just makes sure zero-copy is turned off in those cases. Signed-off-by: NJ. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
