The iterator, ITER_DISCARD, that can only be used in READ mode and just discards any data copied to it, was added to allow a network filesystem to discard any unwanted data sent by a server. Convert cifs_discard_from_socket() to use this. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
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.
