Today blk_queue_enter() and __bio_queue_enter() return -EBUSY for the
nowait code path. This is not correct: they should return -EAGAIN
instead.
This problem was detected by fio. The following command exposed the
above problem:
t/io_uring -p0 -d128 -b4096 -s32 -c32 -F1 -B0 -R0 -X1 -n24 -P1 -u1 -O0 /dev/ng0n1
By applying the patch, the retry case is handled correctly in the slow
path.

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.
