Subject: [RFC,net-next v2 4/8] net: Add MSG_NTCOPY sendmsg flag
Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2022 01:57:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1655024280-23827-5-git-send-email-jdamato@fastly.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1655024280-23827-1-git-send-email-jdamato@fastly.com>
Add MSG_NTCOPY so that user applications can ask the kernel for a
non-temporal copy when copying data into the kernel for TX.
A simple helper is provided to set the iovec iterator copy type if
MSG_NTCOPY is set.
