From aa563d7bca6e882ec2bdae24603c8f016401a144 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2018 00:57:56 +0100 Subject: iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functions In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places. Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions. Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function. The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.
