Sent: 13 September 2023 17:57 Move the iterator functions to a header file so that other operations that need to scan over an iterator can be added. For instance, the rbd driver could use this to scan a buffer to see if it is all zeros and libceph could use this to generate a crc.
These all look a bit big for being more generally inlined. I know you want to avoid the indirect call in the normal cases, but maybe it would be ok for other uses? David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
