3  * Linux io_uring file descriptor monitoring
4  *
5  * The Linux io_uring API supports file descriptor monitoring with a few
6  * advantages over existing APIs like poll(2) and epoll(7):
7  *
8  * 1. Userspace polling of events is possible because the completion queue (cq
9  *    ring) is shared between the kernel and userspace.  This allows
10  *    applications that rely on userspace polling to also monitor file
11  *    descriptors in the same userspace polling loop.
12  *
13  * 2. Submission and completion is batched and done together in a single system
14  *    call.  This minimizes the number of system calls.
15  *
16  * 3. File descriptor monitoring is O(1) like epoll(7) so it scales better than
17  *    poll(2).
18  *
19  * 4. Nanosecond timeouts are supported so it requires fewer syscalls than
20  *    epoll(7).
21  *
22  * This code only monitors file descriptors and does not do asynchronous disk
23  * I/O.  Implementing disk I/O efficiently has other requirements and should
24  * use a separate io_uring so it does not make sense to unify the code.
25  *
26  * File descriptor monitoring is implemented using the following operations:
27  *
28  * 1. IORING_OP_POLL_ADD - adds a file descriptor to be monitored.
29  * 2. IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE - removes a file descriptor being monitored.  When
30  *    the poll mask changes for a file descriptor it is first removed and then
31  *    re-added with the new poll mask, so this operation is also used as part
32  *    of modifying an existing monitored file descriptor.
33  * 3. IORING_OP_TIMEOUT - added every time a blocking syscall is made to wait
34  *    for events.  This operation self-cancels if another event completes
35  *    before the timeout.
36  *
37  * io_uring calls the submission queue the "sq ring" and the completion queue
38  * the "cq ring".  Ring entries are called "sqe" and "cqe", respectively.
39  *
40  * The code is structured so that sq/cq rings are only modified within
41  * fdmon_io_uring_wait().  Changes to AioHandlers are made by enqueuing them on
42  * ctx->submit_list so that fdmon_io_uring_wait() can submit IORING_OP_POLL_ADD
43  * and/or IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE sqes for them.
