Subject: [PATCH] scatterlist: inline sg_next()
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2025 10:06:13 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250416160615.3571958-1-csander@purestorage.com> (raw)
sg_next() is a short function called frequently in I/O paths. Define it
in the header file so it can be inlined into its callers.
Signed-off-by: Caleb Sander Mateos <csander@purestorage.com>

Is it a concern that this would break kernel modules built against old headers?
If so, I could update the patch to continue compiling and exporting sg_next() in
scatterlist.c.
