rwatson 2002/04/19 06:46:27 PDT Modified files: sys/kern uipc_syscalls.c Log: In sendfile(), use the vn_rdwr() helper function, rather than manually constructing a struct aio and invoking VOP_READ() directly. This cleans up the code a little, but also has the advantage of making sure almost all vnode read/write access in the kernel goes through the helper function, meaning that instrumentation of that helper function can impact almost all relevant read/write operations. In this case, it permits us to put MAC hooks into vn_rdwr() and not modify uipc_syscalls.c (yet). In general, if helper vn_*() functions exist, they should be used in preference to direct VOP's in system call service code.
