Hello list, I am developing a filesystem which supports f_op->sendfile. Recently I noticed, in -git tree, ->sendfile is removed and it should be replaced by ->splice_read. If VFS helper for splice_read, like vfs_read(), existed, it had to be very helpful.
There already exists a static function called do_splice_to() and I'd like to suggest to rename it to vfs_splice_read() and make it global, EXPORT_SYMBOL. If fsdevel members agree with that, I will send a small patch for it.
