From 89377bc1975c2993bde4a498a3a4e5817ac0ae2c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kanchan Joshi Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2022 11:07:55 +0530 Subject: nvme: add vectored-io support for user-passthrough Add a new NVME_IOCTL_IO64_CMD_VEC ioctl that works like the existing NVME_IOCTL_IO64_CMD ioctl except that it takes and array of iovecs and thus supports vectored I/O. - cmd.addr is base address of user iovec array - cmd.vec_cnt is count of iovec array elements This patch does not include vectored-variant for admin-commands as most of them are light on buffers and likely to have low invocation frequency.
