- Kill the local variables that cache ->nrbufs, they just take up space. - Only set do_wakeup for a real pipe. This is a big win for direct splicing. - Kill i_mutex lock around ->f_pos update, regular io paths don't do this either. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

Using find_get_page() is a lot faster than find_or_create_page(). This gets splice a lot closer to sendfile() for fd -> socket transfers. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

It's more efficient for sendfile() emulation. Basically we cache an internal private pipe and just use that as the intermediate area for pages. Direct splicing is not available from sys_splice(), it is only meant to be used for sendfile() emulation. Additional patch from Ingo Molnar to avoid the PIPE_BUFFERS loop at exit for the normal fast path. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

add optional input and output offsets to sys_splice(), for seekable file descriptors: asmlinkage long sys_splice(int fd_in, loff_t __user *off_in, int fd_out, loff_t __user *off_out, size_t len, unsigned int flags); semantics are straightforward: f_pos will be updated with the offset provided by user-space, before the splice transfer is about to begin. Providing a NULL offset pointer means the existing f_pos will be used (and updated in situ). Providing an offset for a pipe results in -ESPIPE. Providing an invalid offset pointer results in -EFAULT.

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the internal splice APIs and the pipe code: - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric and more streamlined with existing kernel practices. - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice methods Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Update XFS for the ->splice_read/->splice_write changes.

Originally from Nick Piggin, just adapted to the newer branch. You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock. The page release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless the refcount is 0. Ever.

Thanks to Andrew for the good explanation of why this is so. akpm writes: If a page is under writeback and we remove it from pagecache, it's still going to get written to disk. But the VFS no longer knows about that page, nor that this page is about to modify disk blocks. So there might be scenarios in which those blocks-which-are-about-to-be-written-to get reused for something else. When writeback completes, it'll scribble on those blocks. This won't happen in ext2/ext3-style filesystems in normal mode because the page has buffers and try_to_release_page() will fail. But ext2 in nobh mode doesn't attach buffers at all - it just sticks the page in a BIO, finds some new blocks, points the BIO at those blocks and lets it rip. While that write IO's in flight, someone could truncate the file. Truncate won't block on the writeout because the page isn't in pagecache any more. So truncate will the free the blocks from the file under the page's feet. Then something else can reallocate those blocks. Then write data to them. Now, the original write completes, corrupting the filesystem. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

By cleaning up the writeback logic (killing write_one_page() and the manual set_page_dirty()), we can get rid of ->stolen inside the pipe_buffer and just keep it local in pipe_to_file(). This also adds dirty page balancing logic and O_SYNC handling. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

It doesn't make the splice itself necessarily nonblocking (because the actual file descriptors that are spliced from/to may block unless they have the O_NONBLOCK flag set), but it makes the splice pipe operations nonblocking. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a transport, it can connect to files or sockets (latter as output only). From the splice.c comments: "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands. This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other. The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer. Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation bugs.
