From 8cfba76383e902acbed95092163052b1572f17a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2020 17:07:11 +0000 Subject: pipe: Allow buffers to be marked read-whole-or-error for notifications Allow a buffer to be marked such that read() must return the entire buffer in one go or return ENOBUFS. Multiple buffers can be amalgamated into a single read, but a short read will occur if the next "whole" buffer won't fit. This is useful for watch queue notifications to make sure we don't split a notification across multiple reads, especially given that we need to fabricate an overrun record under some circumstances - and that isn't in the buffers.
