Hello all,
I'm trying to use the vmsplice/splice combination to so socket writes in
zero-copy mode since it seems to be the big
bottle neck in my application.
Here's a simplified code:
// This buffer is actually outside kernel space,
// in reserved contiguous physical memory (custom kernel compilation)
#define BUFFER_PHY_BASE 0x7000000
#define BUFFER_SIZE 0x1000000
memfd=open("/dev/mem", O_RDWR | O_SYNC)
Base=(unsigned char*)mmap(0, BUFFER_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED,
memfd, BUFFER_PHY_BASE);
sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
int pfd[2]; pipe(pfd);
struct iovec iov;
iov.iov_base=Base;
iov.iov_len=BUFFER_SIZE;
printf("Pipe %d/%d, base:0x%x, size:0x%x\n", pfd[0], pfd[1], iov.iov_base,
iov.iov_len);
vmsplice(pfd[1], &iov, 1, SPLICE_F_GIFT)
splice(pfd[0], NULL, sockfd, NULL, BUFFER_SIZE, SPLICE_F_MOVE)
I get the following:
Pipe 6/7, base:0x480cf000, size:0x1000000
vmsplice: Bad address
Any idea what is wrong in my use of vmsplice ?
Thanks
