66 * ...
67 * ->map()
68 * ...
69 * ->unmap()
71 * That is, ->map() must be called on a confirmed buffer,

74 * and generic variants of these hooks.

79 * data into an existing buffer. If this is set to 0, a new pipe
80 * page segment is always used for new data.
82 int can_merge;
85 * ->map() returns a virtual address mapping of the pipe buffer.
86 * The last integer flag reflects whether this should be an atomic
87 * mapping or not. The atomic map is faster, however you can't take
88 * page faults before calling ->unmap() again. So if you need to eg
89 * access user data through copy_to/from_user(), then you must get
90 * a non-atomic map. ->map() uses the KM_USER0 atomic slot for
91 * atomic maps, so you can't map more than one pipe_buffer at once
92 * and you have to be careful if mapping another page as source
93 * or destination for a copy (IOW, it has to use something else
94 * than KM_USER0).

105 * and that the contents are good. If the pages in the pipe belong
106 * to a file system, we may need to wait for IO completion in this
107 * hook. Returns 0 for good, or a negative error value in case of
108 * error.

121 * of the pipe (the buf->page) is locked and now completely owned

123 * mapping, the most often used case is insertion into different
