Allow xdr_set_iov() to set a base so that we can use it to set the cursor to a specific position in the kvec buffer. If the new base overflows the kvec/pages buffer in either xdr_set_iov() or xdr_set_page_base(), then truncate it so that we point to the end of the buffer. Finally, change both function to return the number of bytes remaining to read in their buffers. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.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.
