I was saying io-uring, but I meant io-uring in the wider sense: io_queue_worker_create(). Here is a call trace for when TWA_SIGNAL is used. io_queue_worker_create() uses TWA_SIGNAL. It is called by io_wqe_dec_running(), and not shown due to inlining: [ 70.540761] Call Trace: [ 70.541352] dump_stack+0x7d/0x9c [ 70.541930] task_work_add.cold+0x9/0x12 [ 70.542591] io_wqe_dec_running+0xd6/0xf0 [ 70.543259] io_wq_worker_sleeping+0x3d/0x60 [ 70.544106] schedule+0xa0/0xc0 [ 70.544673] userfaultfd_read_iter+0x2c3/0x790 [ 70.545374] ? wake_up_q+0xa0/0xa0 [ 70.545887] io_iter_do_read+0x1e/0x40 [ 70.546531] io_read+0xdc/0x340 [ 70.547148] ? update_curr+0x72/0x1c0 [ 70.547887] ? update_load_avg+0x7c/0x600 [ 70.548538] ? __switch_to_xtra+0x10a/0x500 [ 70.549264] io_issue_sqe+0xd99/0x1840 [ 70.549887] ? lock_timer_base+0x72/0xa0 [ 70.550516] ? try_to_del_timer_sync+0x54/0x80 [ 70.551224] io_wq_submit_work+0x87/0xb0 [ 70.552001] io_worker_handle_work+0x2b5/0x4b0 [ 70.552705] io_wqe_worker+0xd6/0x2f0 [ 70.553364] ? recalc_sigpending+0x1c/0x50 [ 70.554074] ? io_worker_handle_work+0x4b0/0x4b0 [ 70.554813] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 Does it answer your question?
