Currently ceph_tcp_sendpage() and do_try_sendpage() use sendpage_ok() in
order to enable MSG_SPLICE_PAGES, it check the first page of the
iterator, the iterator may represent contiguous pages.

MSG_SPLICE_PAGES enables skb_splice_from_iter() which checks all the
pages it sends with sendpage_ok().

When ceph_tcp_sendpage() or do_try_sendpage() send an iterator that the
first page is sendable, but one of the other pages isn't
skb_splice_from_iter() warns and aborts the data transfer.

Using the new helper sendpages_ok() in order to enable MSG_SPLICE_PAGES
solves the issue.

Hi Ofir,

Ceph should be fine as is -- there is an internal "cursor" abstraction
that that is limited to PAGE_SIZE chunks, using bvec_iter_bvec() instead
of mp_bvec_iter_bvec(), etc.  This means that both do_try_sendpage() and
ceph_tcp_sendpage() should be called only with

  page_off + len <= PAGE_SIZE

being true even if the page is contiguous (and that we lose out on the
potential performance benefit, of course...).

That said, if the plan is to remove sendpage_ok() so that it doesn't
accidentally grow new users who are unaware of this pitfall, consider
this

Thanks,

I dont think the plan is to remove sendpage_ok() (unless someone says
otherwise). Im sending v5 without the libceph patch.

Thanks
