BIO_ADVANCE(9) The Linux VFS BIO_ADVANCE(9)NAMEbio_advance - increment/complete a bio by some number of bytes
SYNOPSIS
void bio_advance(struct bio * bio, unsigned bytes);
ARGUMENTS
bio
bio to advance
bytes
number of bytes to complete
DESCRIPTION
This updates bi_sector, bi_size and bi_idx; if the number of bytes to

will be updated on the last bvec as well.
bio will then represent the remaining, uncompleted portion of the io.
