I've been playing on my spare time with a ring buffer splice interface. But I've not had the time to get it working fully. My version would be a binary only interface, but I really like the text interface you have. You can look at my old changes at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace.git The branch tip/splice-broken As the name suggests, it is still broken ;-) -- Steve
