I've given up on the idea of zero-copy handling of SYMLINK on the server side. This is because the Linux VFS symlink API requires the symlink pathname to be in a NUL-terminated kmalloc'd buffer. The NUL-termination is going to be problematic (watching out for landing on a page boundary and dealing with a 4096-byte pathname). I don't believe that SYMLINK creation is on a performance path or is requested frequently enough that it will cause noticeable CPU cache pollution due to data copies. There will be two places where a transport callout will be necessary to fill in the rqstp: one will be in the svc_fill_symlink_pathname() helper that is used by NFSv2 and NFSv3, and the other will be in nfsd4_decode_create().
