From c1edbf5f081be9fbbea68c1d564b773e59c1acf3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Sun, 10 Nov 2019 16:56:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: flag SQPOLL busy condition to userspace Now that we have backpressure, for SQPOLL, we have one more condition that warrants flagging that the application needs to enter the kernel: we failed to submit IO due to backpressure. Make sure we catch that and flag it appropriately. If we run into backpressure issues with the SQPOLL thread, flag it as such to the application by setting IORING_SQ_NEED_WAKEUP. This will cause the application to enter the kernel, and that will flush the backlog and clear the condition.
