DO_SPLICE_DIRECT(9)		  splice API		   DO_SPLICE_DIRECT(9)

NAME
       do_splice_direct - splices data directly between two files

SYNOPSIS
       long do_splice_direct(struct file * in, loff_t * ppos,
			     struct file * out, size_t len,
			     unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS
       in
	   file to splice from

       ppos
	   input file offset

       out
	   file to splice to

       len
	   number of bytes to splice

       flags
	   splice modifier flags

DESCRIPTION
       For use by do_sendfile. splice can easily emulate sendfile, but doing
       it in the application would incur an extra system call (splice in +
       splice out, as compared to just sendfile). So this helper can splice
       directly through a process-private pipe.
