Linux kernel stable tree

Regions will serve multiple purposes. First, with it we can decouple ring/etc. object creation from registration / mapping of the memory they will be placed in. We already have hacks that allow to put both SQ and CQ into the same huge page, in the future we should be able to: region = create_region(io_ring); create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=0); create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=N); The second use case is efficiently passing parameters. The following patch enables back on top of regions IORING_ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG, which optimises wait arguments. It'll also be useful for request arguments replacing iovecs, msghdr, etc. pointers. Eventually it would also be handy for BPF as well if it comes to fruition.

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 reStructuredText 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.
