There is a new IO::Splice.copy_stream method which is similar to the IO.copy_stream method in 1.9 core, but uses splice() internally to avoid copies to userspace in situations where sendfile() is not possible. With Linux 2.6.35 (and header files to match), we will also export the F_GETPIPE_SZ and and F_SETPIPE_SZ constants so they can be used with fcntl() to resize pipe buffers. The documentation is also updated to reflect the returned usefulness of the IO::Splice::F_MOVE constant for FUSE filesystems under Linux 2.6.35. I've also relicensed to LGPLv2.1+ (from LGPLv3-only) to allow bundling with GPLv2-only applications (I'm currently the sole copyright holder). Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
