Linux kernel source tree
66f4af93da
The application currently has no way of knowing if a given opcode is supported or not without having to try and issue one and see if we get -EINVAL or not. And even this approach is fraught with peril, as maybe we're getting -EINVAL due to some fields being missing, or maybe it's just not that easy to issue that particular command without doing some other leg work in terms of setup first. This adds IORING_REGISTER_PROBE, which fills in a structure with info on what it supported or not. This will work even with sparse opcode fields, which may happen in the future or even today if someone backports specific features to older kernels. 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.
