Subject: [PATCH 05/12] iov: Add IOV_PUT_HEADER() to write header data back to iov_tail
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 15:03:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260227140330.2216753-6-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260227140330.2216753-1-lvivier@redhat.com>
Add a counterpart to IOV_PEEK_HEADER() that writes header data back
to an iov_tail after modification. If the header pointer matches the
original iov buffer location, it only advances the offset. Otherwise,
it copies the data using iov_from_buf().
