Memory conditions and max_bio constraints might cause us to not comply to the full length of the requested IO. Instead of failing the complete IO we can issue a shorter read/write and report how much was actually executed in the ios->length member. All users must check ios->length at IO_done or upon return of ore_read/write and re-issue the reminder of the bytes. Because other wise there is no error returned like before. This is part of the effort to support the pnfs-obj layout driver. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
