Ilya Dryomov 038b8d1d1a libceph: optionally use bounce buffer on recv path in crc mode
Both msgr1 and msgr2 in crc mode are zero copy in the sense that
message data is read from the socket directly into the destination
buffer.  We assume that the destination buffer is stable (i.e. remains
unchanged while it is being read to) though.  Otherwise, CRC errors
ensue:

  libceph: read_partial_message 0000000048edf8ad data crc 1063286393 != exp. 228122706
  libceph: osd1 (1)192.168.122.1:6843 bad crc/signature

  libceph: bad data crc, calculated 57958023, expected 1805382778
  libceph: osd2 (2)192.168.122.1:6876 integrity error, bad crc

Introduce rxbounce option to enable use of a bounce buffer when
receiving message data.  In particular this is needed if a mapped
image is a Windows VM disk, passed to QEMU.  Windows has a system-wide
"dummy" page that may be mapped into the destination buffer (potentially
more than once into the same buffer) by the Windows Memory Manager in
an effort to generate a single large I/O [1][2].  QEMU makes a point of
preserving overlap relationships when cloning I/O vectors, so krbd gets
exposed to this behaviour.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
