When polling sockets for accept, use EPOLLEXCLUSIVE. This is helpful when multiple accept SQEs are submitted. For O_NONBLOCK sockets multiple queued SQEs would previously have all completed at once, but most with -EAGAIN as the result. Now only one wakes up and completes. For sockets without O_NONBLOCK there is no user facing change, but internally the extra requests would previously be queued onto a worker thread as they would wake up with no connection waiting, and be punted. Now they do not wake up unnecessarily.

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 Restructured Text 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.
