[ Upstream commit 4a85a6a3320b4a622315d2e0ea91a1d2b013bce4 ]
Daire Byrne reports a ~50% aggregrate throughput regression on his Linux NFS server after commit da1661b93bf4 ("SUNRPC: Teach server to use xprt_sock_sendmsg for socket sends"), which replaced kernel_send_page() calls in NFSD's socket send path with calls to sock_sendmsg() using iov_iter.
Investigation showed that tcp_sendmsg() was not using zero-copy to send the xdr_buf's bvec pages, but instead was relying on memcpy. This means copying every byte of a large NFS READ payload.
It looks like TLS sockets do indeed support a ->sendpage method, so it's really not necessary to use xprt_sock_sendmsg() to support TLS fully on the server. A mechanical reversion of da1661b93bf4 is not possible at this point, but we can re-implement the server's TCP socket sendmsg path using kernel_sendpage().
