It would make the most sense if the owner of the kiocb (eg io_uring in this case) owned it, but take a look at eg ocfs2 and see what they do with it... I think this would blow up as a result. Outside of that, and with the O_DIRECT thing check fixed, this should just be two separate functions, one for read and one for write. -- Jens Axboe
