SYNOPSIS

9       int generic_pipe_buf_steal(struct pipe_inode_info * pipe,

ARGUMENTS

13       pipe
14           the pipe that the buffer belongs to

16       buf
17           the buffer to attempt to steal

DESCRIPTION

20       This function attempts to steal the struct page attached to buf. If
21       successful, this function returns 0 and returns with the page locked.
22       The caller may then reuse the page for whatever he wishes; the typical
23       use is insertion into a different file page cache.
