SubjectRe: PATCH: Raw device IO for 2.1.131
   Date: Tue, 15 Dec 1998 19:40:28 -0800 (PST)
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@transmeta.com>

I'm not arguing against zero-copy per se. I'm arguing against
people who think memory management tricks are a good idea. They
generally aren't, look at where Mach is.

Ok ok ok, as usual you are the voice of reason.

Just one situation I want clarified, do you think we'll be able to fit
into our framework a way to (for example) get at the user's
application level headers during a write (ie. http header, then the
data)?

Later,
