[$] Improving iov_iter
Tuesday June 10, 2025. 05:16 PM , from LWN.net
The iov_iter interface is used to
describe and iterate through buffers in the kernel. David Howells led a combined storage and filesystem session at the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit (LSFMM+BPF) to discuss ways to improve iov_iter. His topic proposal listed a few different ideas including replacing some iov_iter types and possibly allowing mixed types in chains of iov_iter entries; he would like to make the interface itself and the uses of iov_iter in the kernel better.
