From 70524490ee2ea1bbf6cee6c106597b3ac25a3fc2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2006 15:51:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] splice: add support for sys_tee() Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference. Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the input pipe data.
