This causes a behavioral change where if you ask to submit 1 but there's nothing in the SQ ring, then you would get 0 before. Now you get -EAGAIN. This doesn't make a lot of sense, since there's no point in retrying as that won't change anything. Can we please just do something like the one I sent, instead of trying to over-complicate it? -- Jens Axboe
