I agree that that would be cleaner. task_frag should have been an opt-in thing all along. That change regressed all of the in-kernel users of sockets. Where would be the right place to set that flag for only userland sockets? A lot of the in-kernel socket users hook into the socket API at a fairly high-level. 9P and CIFS, for instance, call __sock_create. We could set it in the syscall handlers (and maybe in iouring) I suppose, but that seems like the wrong thing to do too. In the absence of a clean place to do this, I think we're going to be stuck doing it the way Ben has proposed... -- Jeff Layton <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
