A bvec can now consist of multiple physically contiguous pages. This means that bvec_iter_advance() can move to a different page while staying in the same bvec (i.e. ->bi_bvec_done != 0). The messenger works in terms of segments which can now be defined as the smaller of a bvec and a page. The "more bytes to process in this segment" condition holds only if bvec_iter_advance() leaves us in the same bvec _and_ in the same page. On next bvec (possibly in the same page) and on next page (possibly in the same bvec) we may need to set ->last_piece. Signed-off-by: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@gmail.com> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
