From 3a6820f2bb8a079975109c25a5d1f29f46bce5d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Sun, 22 Dec 2019 15:19:35 -0700 Subject: io_uring: add non-vectored read/write commands For uses cases that don't already naturally have an iovec, it's easier (or more convenient) to just use a buffer address + length. This is particular true if the use case is from languages that want to create a memory safe abstraction on top of io_uring, and where introducing the need for the iovec may impose an ownership issue. For those cases, they currently need an indirection buffer, which means allocating data just for this purpose. Add basic read/write that don't require the iovec.
