Subject: patch for splice system call.
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 12:09:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7a37e95e0512122239p34d0f436k30227f7f62a2e437@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi All!

I am routing data from a tuner to harddisk.
I came to know splice() is something related to do real-time IO.
I believe direct IO doesn't address this scenario.

Can any one refer me the source to the patch of splice() system call.

Regards,
Deven
