Russell,

Our "software stack" provides the kernel API under discussion:

  {read,write}_data{8,16,32}

These 6 functions must be implemented, because they are part
of the API we provide to customers. As the "page domain fault"
underscores, my own implementation is incorrect. I am grateful
for the implementation you suggested up-thread, and will test
its performance on Monday.


Our "software stack" also provides several user-space tools,
some of which use the above kernel API. One of those tools is
the one I described, to copy files to remote RAM.

The current code uses write_data8, but the implementation is
irrelevant. Any implementation is acceptable, as long as the
tool works as expected. So I can take advantage of the tool's
specificities to optimize.


Anyway, thanks again for the guidance and advice, and please
give a little more credit.

Regards.
