[RFC PATCH v2 04/48] net: Declare MSG_SPLICE_PAGES internal sendmsg() flag

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2023-03-29 14:27:23
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [sockets], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Kuniyuki Iwashima, Willem de Bruijn, Linus Torvalds

Declare MSG_SPLICE_PAGES, an internal sendmsg() flag, that hints to a
network protocol that it should splice pages from the source iterator
rather than copying the data if it can.  This flag is added to a list that
is cleared by sendmsg and recvmsg syscalls on entry.

This is intended as a replacement for the ->sendpage() op, allowing a way
to splice in several multipage folios in one go.
