Bug ID: 24744
Summary: Remove copy_file_range emulation
Product: glibc
Version: 2.30
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: fweimer at redhat dot com
CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
The kernel is evolving this interface rapidly, and our emulation is no longer
faithful: Among other things, we do not detect overlapping copies (which is
quite hard outside the kernel). The kernel also plans to support cross-device
copies.
