:sendfile is fs specific aswell. it doesnt work on smbfs etc which
:seems quite weird.

There are some fairly severe filesystem dependancies in the kernel
sendfile implementation. It uses the UIO_NOCOPY mechanism that
UFS normally only uses when populating a buffer cache buffer. What
is needed here is a direct VOP interface to instantiate VM cache pages
for a file.
