For some applications that end up using a submit-and-wait type of approach for certain batches of IO, we can make that a bit more efficient by allowing the application to block for the last IO submission. This prevents an async when we don't need it, as the application will be blocking for the completion event(s) anyway. Typical use cases are using the liburing io_uring_submit_and_wait() API, or just using io_uring_enter() doing both submissions and completions. As a specific example, RocksDB doing MultiGet() is sped up quite a bit with this change. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

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.
