hi all, 

i have written a special ioctl which writes data into a file from a buffer in
kernel memory. it invokes fo->fo_write() and involves one copy from kernel
mem
to disk cache. however this takes substantially more time than an ordinary
write which copies from user space to the disk cache. any explanations??? 

thanx in advance 

joy
