io_buffer_register_bvec() currently uses blk_rq_nr_phys_segments() as
the number of bvecs in the request. However, bvecs may be split into
multiple segments depending on the queue limits. Thus, the number of
segments may overestimate the number of bvecs. For ublk devices, the
only current users of io_buffer_register_bvec(), virt_boundary_mask,
seg_boundary_mask, max_segments, and max_segment_size can all be set
arbitrarily by the ublk server process.
Set imu->nr_bvecs based on the number of bvecs the rq_for_each_bvec()
loop actually yields. However, continue using blk_rq_nr_phys_segments()
as an upper bound on the number of bvecs when allocating imu to avoid
needing to iterate the bvecs a second time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
