This is clearly non-optimal. What we would want is something similar to pread/preadv(), but working even for tcp sockets. At the same time, we don't want to add any new arguments to the recv/recvmsg() calls. In this commit, we allow the user to set iovec.iov_base in the first vector entry to NULL. This tells the socket to skip the first entry, hence letting the iov_len field of that entry indicate the offset value. This way, there is no need to add any new arguments or flags. In the iperf3 logs examples shown below, we can observe a throughput improvement of ~20 % in the direction host->namespace when using the protocol splicer 'passt'. This is a consistent result. $ ./passt/passt/pasta --config-net -f MSG_PEEK with offset not supported.
