@@ -37,6 +42,31 @@ This function prepares an async
 request. See that man page for details on the arguments specified to this
 prep helper.
 
+The multishot version allows the application to issue a single receive request,
+which repeatedly posts a CQE when data is available. It requires the
+.B IOSQE_BUFFER_SELECT
+flag to be set and no
+.B MSG_WAITALL
+flag to be set.
+Therefore each CQE will take a buffer out of a provided buffer pool for receiving.
+The application should check the flags of each CQE, regardless of it's result.
+If a posted CQE does not have the
+.B IORING_CQE_F_MORE
+flag set then the multishot receive will be done and the application should issue a
+new request.
+
+Unlike
+.BR recvmsg (2)
+, multishot recvmsg will prepend a
+.I struct io_uring_recvmsg_out
+which describes the layout of the rest of the buffer in combination with the initial
+.I struct msghdr
+submitted with the request. See
+.B io_uring_recvmsg_out (3)
+for more information on accessing the data.
+
+Multishot variants are available since kernel 5.20.

 After calling this function, additional io_uring internal modifier flags
 may be set in the SQE

+
+These functions are used to access data in the payload delivered by
+.BR io_uring_prep_recv_multishot (3)
+.
+.PP
+.BR io_uring_recvmsg_validate (3)
+will validate a buffer delivered by
+.BR io_uring_prep_recv_multishot (3)
+and extract the
+.I io_uring_recvmsg_out
+if it is valid, returning a pointer to it or else NULL.
+.PP
+The structure is defined as follows:

+        __u32 namelen;    /* Name byte count as would have been populated

+.IP * 3
+.BR io_uring_recvmsg_name (3)
+returns a pointer to the name in the buffer.

+.BR io_uring_recvmsg_cmsg_firsthdr (3)
