Precisely. And this is the bit that is currently still broken for
splice-to-socket, since it gives that ack right after ->sendpage() has
been called. But that's a known deficiency right now, I think Alexey is
currently looking at that (as well as receive side support).

That's right, I was discussing this with him just a few days ago.

It's good to hear that he's looking at those patches you were working
on several months ago.
