it had exactly the same bugs as the linux aio backend, * where some undocumented poll combinations just fail. fortunately, * after finally reaching the author, he was more than willing to fix * this probably in 5.6+. * k) overall, the *API* itself is, I dare to say, not a total trainwreck. * once the bugs ae fixed (probably in 5.6+), it will be without * competition. */ /* TODO: use internal TIMEOUT */ /* TODO: take advantage of single mmap, NODROP etc. */ /* TODO: resize cq/sq size independently */ #include #include #include #include #define IOURING_INIT_ENTRIES 32 /*****************************************************************************/ /* syscall wrapdadoop - this section has the raw api/abi definitions */ #include #include /* mostly directly taken from the kernel or documentation */ struct io_uring_sqe { __u8 opcode; __u8 flags; __u16 ioprio; __s32 fd; union { __u64 off; __u64 addr2; }; __u64 addr; __u32 len; union { __kernel_rwf_t rw_flags; __u32 fsync_flags; __u16 poll_events; __u32 sync_range_flags; __u32 msg_flags; __u32 timeout_flags; __u32 accept_flags; __u32 cancel_flags; __u32 open_flags; __u32 statx_flags; }; __u64 user_data; union { __u16 buf_index; __u64 __pad2[3]; }; }; struct io_uring_cqe { __u64 user_data; __s32 res; __u32 flags; }; struct io_sqring_offsets { __u32 head; __u32 tail; __u32 ring_mask; __u32 ring_entries; __u32 flags; __u32 dropped; __u32 array; __u32 resv1; __u64 resv2; }; struct io_cqring_offsets { __u32 head; __u32 tail; __u32 ring_mask; __u32 ring_entries; __u32 overflow; __u32 cqes; __u64 resv[2]; }; struct io_uring_params { __u32 sq_entries; __u32 cq_entries; __u32 flags; __u32 sq_thread_cpu; __u32 sq_thread_idle; __u32 features; __u32 resv[4]; struct io_sqring_offsets sq_off; struct io_cqring_offsets cq_off; }; #define IORING_SETUP_CQSIZE 0x00000008 #define IORING_OP_POLL_ADD 6 #define IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE 7 #define IORING_OP_TIMEOUT 11 #define IORING_OP_TIMEOUT_REMOVE 12 /* relative or absolute, reference clock is CLOCK_MONOTONIC */ struct iouring_kernel_timespec { int64_t tv_sec; long long tv_nsec; }; #define IORING_TIMEOUT_ABS 0x00000001 #define IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS 0x01 #define IORING_OFF_SQ_RING 0x00000000ULL #define IORING_OFF_CQ_RING 0x08000000ULL #define IORING_OFF_SQES 0x10000000ULL #define IORING_FEAT_SINGLE_MMAP 0x00000001 #define IORING_FEAT_NODROP 0x00000002 #define IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE 0x00000004 inline_size int evsys_io_uring_setup (unsigned entries, struct io_uring_params *params) { return ev_syscall2 (SYS_io_uring_setup, entries, params); } inline_size int evsys_io_uring_enter (int fd, unsigned to_submit, unsigned min_complete, unsigned flags, const sigset_t *sig, size_t sigsz) { return ev_syscall6 (SYS_io_uring_enter, fd, to_submit, min_complete, flags, sig, sigsz); } /*****************************************************************************/ /* actual backed implementation */ /* we hope that volatile will make the compiler access this variables only once */ #define EV_SQ_VAR(name) *(volatile unsigned *)((char *)iouring_sq_ring + iouring_sq_ ## name) #define EV_CQ_VAR(name) *(volatile unsigned *)((char *)iouring_cq_ring + iouring_cq_ ## name) /* the index array */ #define EV_SQ_ARRAY ((unsigned *)((char *)iouring_sq_ring + iouring_sq_array)) /* the submit/completion queue entries */ #define EV_SQES ((struct io_uring_sqe *) iouring_sqes) #define EV_CQES ((struct io_uring_cqe *)((char *)iouring_cq_ring + iouring_cq_cqes)) inline_speed int iouring_enter (EV_P_ ev_tstamp timeout) { int res; EV_RELEASE_CB; res = evsys_io_uring_enter (iouring_fd, iouring_to_submit, 1, timeout > EV_TS_CONST (0.) ?
