[PATCH v6 0/5] Add preadv & pwritev system calls.

From: Gerd Hoffmann
Date: Fri Jan 16 2009 - 11:46:51 EST


Hi folks,

Next round of the preadv & pwritev patch series. Had no review comments
to fix. That means it is ready to be merged, right?

Changes:
- compat_sys_{read,write}v bugfix patch dropped (merged).
- rebase to latest git, adapt to CVE-2009-0029 changes.

How to proceed now? Is there a syscall maintainer where I could queue
up the patches? If not, anyone (akpm?) willng to pick this up? Should
I try to send to Linus directly?

What is the usual way to handle the arch-specific syscall windup? I'd
prefer to leave that to the arch maintainers as they know best what
needs to be done, is that ok? Right now only x86 (/me) and mips (patch
from Ralf Baechle) is covered ...

cheers,
Gerd
